Yea, there's a "user.exe" in my system directory also and it's dated Jun 12
1997 and has a size of 47392. Downloading and installing full.exe would not
have corrupted this file. Many hundreds of people use this software and I've
installed it several times myself.
However, if you downloaded user.exe and stored it in the system directory
overwriting the user.exe that was in you system directory then it is most
likely the problem.
Your setup environment was clean.
