I have to agree with Larry. I can't comment regarding the prefix updates because I know nothing about what that entails. I am guessing Neal had a learning curve the first time and it will simpler the next time.
On an aside, when I ran the Updater, my databases were corrupted. It could have been my fault. I wonder if anyone else suffered a corrupted database when running the program. I'm using XP Home and Pro. The incident occurred on XP Home.
