You can always try to download the files via a browser, and do a local install. Wit hMSIE5.5: * Go to <http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/>, rightclick on the PPD file, choose "save as", and save it. * Save the file from <http://www.xmlproj.com/PPM/MSWin32-x86-multi-thread/DBI.tar.gz> in a simple position relative to the PPD file. * edit the PPD file in a text editor, and make the HREF attribute for the CODEBASE tag a relative RL, indicating the relative position of the ..tar.gz file. * open a DOS window, CHDIR to the directory containing the PPD file, and now instruct PPM to install DBI. -- Bart.
