Hi Gordon, Just a quick follow-up: in case the address of the ftp site looks strange when it gets passed through the mailing list, go look at this post in the Mail archive web page instead:
http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss%40macvisionaries.com/msg30261.html The ftp address should just appear as a clickable link from Safari that will start the program downloading (Command+Option+L will show you the downloads window). I'm also hoping that by doing the direct download you can avoid the spam that people who have registered with Smith Micro subsequently complained of. And if there are any difficulties reading these links because of going through the mailing list I can send you email directly. Cheers, Esther >Hi Gordon, > >You can use stuffit expander.
