Yes, I checked again. I used my XP SP2 machine in VMWare which I always use whenever I want to test a plain install. No environment variables, no path entries. Even starting a new CMD.EXE does not work (as I tested before). Interestingly, I just checked the registry and found out that the entries are there. Ok, I logged off, logged in, and the entries are there. Thus, one has to log off.

Another thing: The announcement is in Unix format (LF only), but it is shown with notepad. This is not good, as notepad cannot interpret LF correctly. Anyway, if you could change it to use WordPad ("write.exe"), this would be better as WordPad can handle LF only correctly. > > Anyway, I do not see any sense in this installation.

As I told above, it works "almost". Regards, Spiro. -- Spiro R.
