setup files. After the setup files have been saved to
your hard drive, and while you're still connected to the

Click Desktop then click Save. After the download is complete, a
.bin or .hqx file will appear on your desktop.

Use your decompression program to
decompress and decode the file. If you have installed
Stuffit Expander, you will only need to drag the file
onto the Expander icon, and the file will unstuff to
reveal an installer icon. If you are running Internet
Explorer 3.0 or later, the file will decompress
automatically.

Double-click the Installer icon.
|
| e) |
Read the End User License Agreement
