This is not the recommended way of handling this situation.  You end up
with a ".new" extension if the DLL was in use at the time of your upgrade.
In this case, setup*.exe schedules a replace of your existing DLL with the
".new" version on reboot.  So if you find such a file on your system, the
sanctioned resolution to this is to reboot.

You must have subscribed to the list and requested a digest.  By
default, any email replies to this list go to the list.  If you
want a direct copy, you have to ask for it and you rely on the
kindness of the responder to put in the extra effort to comply.
The best way to get individual messages from this list that are easy
to reply to is to subscribe without using the digest option.
