You do know that Win9x is not supported on official DOSBox, don't you? And Daum is broken. You could try DOSBox-X, but do not expect much support.

I can confirm that the OP's steps to get both Daemon Tools 3.47 and Virtual Clone Drive 4.5.4.0 working on Windows 95 without IE 4.0 are successful.

I've tested both solutions on period hardware, with no emulation and it does work.

There is one caveat however.
Replacing the SHLWAPI.DLL with the new version will result in errors. I experienced program faults on both EXPLORER.EXE and KERNEL32.DLL when trying to open Windows Explorer, Control Panel or any view of the file system.
It's not needed. The original 1996 file from WIndows 95 OSR 2.0 (B) is sufficient enough, and causes no crashes, and the applications work without any issue.
