The GUI setup that we had for the last two years made things feel like "I tried to download your full.exe and it says EXE is corrupted! What's going on?" or "I tried to download your full.exe and it says that files are missing. What gives?" or "I downloaded the pieces of the full.exe. How do I put them together?" Out of curiousity, was there a reason why you didn't just run "setup.exe" and download from the interent? To answer your security issues question, I am not aware of any specific exploits but I would not be surprised if there were problems if you installed a daemon or ran a program as administrator. cgf -- Want to unsubscribe from this list?
