I ran with no trouble under Win95.  But there is always a long delay at
startup.  I ***think*** it's trying to do a reverse DNS lookup on its own IP
address.  If you're not on a network it would be waiting for that attempt to
time out.  At any rate, a ridiculous delay at startup is what I always got.
Not like 5 minutes, though, maybe 1 minute.

It should print out information like the ports it's using in the console
window once it's ready for use.  That's how you can tell.
