Hi Bob,

What a disappointment - spending so much
time in downloading your program (three
attempts), only to have it fail in its installation.

Your installer told me I have an outdated file it
needs to replace. After allowing - and rebooting
- the installer did not continue. When attempting
another install, I get the same response... ad
infinitum.

I had a similar problem during install. Use msconfig.exe to shut off
all background apps, reboot and reinstall. Worked for me.

Interesting... I've never run across anything
like this before. Did the apps that you shut
down include your firewall, web-bug or Trojan
detectors, and/or anti-virus apps as well?

I did not shut down anything, but on Windows XP I got 3 or 4 messages that
said the file I was trying to install was older than what was already
there.
I kept the existing files. Installed and runs OK. BTW, downloaded at about
3
KBs.

Hi Tam,

Since I'm not running XP, perhaps this
explains it, though this dosen't dispell
my curiosity... I naturally distrust any
freeware that installs abnormally...
spyware, and all that stuff, y'know.
