Ugggh,
So after hours of trying to download the programs, I finally got through and BOTH of them are HTML not .EXE files and I can't install them.
Hi Judi,
I managed to download them just today. One is a zip file and the other an exe.
Creative Content made a boo-boo. This offer is supposed to be a promotion. But what they did was like setting up a tent outside a stadium where some huge football match is going on. The sign at the front of the tent says
Free Beer!
(If you sign up to be on our mailing list)
Naturally, a hearty throng of hot, thirsty football fans (and a few football hooligans) stand in the queue. Once inside the tent, one observes a big table where people line up in yet another queue to sign up to be on the mailing list. A bevy of smiling beautiful young women sign up those eager souls who make it to the front of the line. The young women then direct the signers to a small voting-booth type structure wa-a-a-ay far at the back of the tent in a dark inhospitable corner, instructing all to go there to collect the free beer.
A second huge, slow-moving line snakes around a tiny lugubrious entrance of this second tent, and on the other side of the entrance (after waiting hours in line), upon entrance, the stalwart observes a single sad pickwickian individual dispensing beer to those hardy people who have managed to get to the bar. The bartender is quite old and croflin, not well, and moves very slowly. Moreover, the tap is extremely small and the beer pours out very slowly. The faulty spigot causes so much foam that often the glass must be emptied and another trial at filling it must be made.
For some odd reason, the ungrateful football fans who signed up for the mailing list are a bit surly and do not order much from the garish adverts they receive in the mail, and a few of them make rude gestures.
Go figure!
Regards,
Alan

The setup file is 286mb and the zipped file is 344mb, Judi.
Got the files and they were also html. If you don't want to change settings of your OS (way it shows files and extensions) you can open the C:\ Command Prompt window and use the DOS command "rename" getting rid of the html extension and use the exe and zip extensions. Works fine.

Good clean d'load of both files.
Lyfe is gude ...
"Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.
Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.
