There was a 3.5 FIXDISK? I never heard of this before!

I can't buy 3.51 for my 7300 (it's a work machine, and such
budgetary "fluff" isn't allowed), so fixing 3.5 is appealing
to me. I have two questions:

1. what does the 3.5 FIXDISK fix?

2. can I get it anywhere?

Actually, my 7300 works pretty much to my satisfaction with
3.5, but if I can get the 3.5 FIXDISK contents free somewhere,
I'd like to install it anyway (maybe it fixes the obnoxious
Telephone Manager that dies every three days).

Any leads would be appreciated!
