    job to finish? 

    Have you found yourself frozen in front of your PC with your 
    eyes glued to the monitor hoping to catch that flash of a 
    dialog box or hear that beep that says it's ok to move on to

    signal until you come back and acknowledge your new messages.

    these agent programs.

  INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
  -------------------------

    To keep transfer time to a minimum, this product has been 
    'zipped up'.

    You will need to create a directory on your hard drive (eg. 
    'C:\TEMP\') and 'unzip' the file(s) you have downloaded into 
    that directory using a program such as WINZIP or PKUNZIP.

    Once you have unzipped the files, you must then run the 
    SETUP.EXE program. After prompting you on where to install 
    the program on your system, the setup program will prepare 
    all of the program files in that directory.

    It is generally a good idea to 'unzip' the files in one 
    directory and install (with SETUP.EXE) to another directory. 
    This way you can erase the first temporary directory after 
    you have run the setup program.
