I'm sorry but we really don't see how we could make our install instructions clearer. Basically, it's [1] Unzip [2] Go to the bin directory [3] Run ditac.bat. How could it be simpler? If it does not work, it's because you probably have several Java runtimes installed on your machine. If you open a command prompt and type "java -version", you'll probably see what's printed by an old Java 1.4 runtime (hence the Java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError). In such case, the cure is to edit ditac.bat using notepad and to replace the line starting with: java -Xss2m -Xmx256m ... by: "C:\Program Files\jre6\bin\java.exe" -Xss2m -Xmx256m ... Of course "C:\Program Files\jre6\bin\java.exe" is just an example. Please specify the actual location of java.exe version 1.5+. Any Java runtime above 1.5 should work fine.
