I just tried it and everything seems to be OK. (OS is Windows
2000.)

There were a couple of minor points that may not actually be
bugs but seem a little odd. One is the big blank space on the
left of the first window, which looks suspiciously as though
there was meant to be an image there.

The other is that downloaded packages are being saved under a
directory named for the download site, instead of all going
into common "contrib" and "latest" directories as they used
to. Was this intentional?

Thanks for all your efforts!
