This is probably a problem with your download (unless you got it from a mirror that somehow has a corrupted copy). I have heard from 3 other people about errors with the downloaded version. In the one case that I followed up with most closely, it was a bad download. To help diagnose problems like this, I've put files containing checksums online. They should be visible tomorrow. To use them, download md5sum.txt from the main directory (for rw1061.exe) or from the mini directory (for all the mini*.* files). Then find a copy of md5sum.exe and (while in the directory containing the downloads) run md5sum --check md5sum.txt This will almost certainly detect any download errors. I'm working on finding a copy of md5sum.exe that I can also make available for download for people who don't already have a copy. For what it's worth, all the other 3 examples of people who had download problems were using Windows 2000, but I've also heard of people using Win2K who had no problems. I don't know the cause yet.

Thanks for your help, and to everybody who replied to my message. It was a bad download. For the record, I am using Win98. Best regards, Renaud
