There have been some beta releases in the past where Maxim wished to test the MSI wrapping, as the developers were feeling close to a version sufficiently stable for a public release. And at several of those releases, because more changes were tipped in than just the MSI wrap, some of the beta testers did ask on this list for a rar file of the version in addition to the MSI-wrapped version. No time to do a search right now, but IIRC, this wish was acceded to, but only for that particular issuance of an MSI-wrapped version. I don't think it became a fixed policy always to offer to the beta testers a rar file version along with the MSI-wrapped version being submitted to the list for testing. So this is a good request from you, Greg, and I support the idea of a rar file being offered also, whenever an MSI wrap is offered for testing. Because of the developers' practice of incorporating a few extra items for testing in the new MSI-wrapped offering. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat 3.51.10 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.51.10 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
