This might work for you.....
I have my 'summer 2005' cd data copied to my local hard drive, C:, and it
works. The catch is that all the CD call data is in a directory called
"callbk" (on the root of C). I copied only the contents of that directory
from the CD to the hard drive. I didn't copy the pictures sub-directory.
In DX4WIN setup, my data source is "QRZ CDRom", data directory is just "C:".
It seems to find it ok this way.
I could NOT get it working specifying another directory for the data on C:
drive, other than the "callbk".
To be clear, my QRZ data is located at C:/callbk/

Thanks, Ernie. I haven't tried it, but it makes perfect sense that
installing the QRZ CDROM data in the root directory of a local drive should
work.
Excellent work-around until a permanent correction can be released. Thanks!
