Hi Claude

Thanks for the suggestion.

True, this is what I mean about the "standard" Windows install - it 
isn't standard and is likely to be an old version!!

Thanks for the tip.  However, I'd need a Mac version as well (which 
is under consideration, but NOT under development as far as I know). 
Also, it's not clear how much it would cost to deploy a single 
program to many 100s of users at a corporate client location, would 
this cost me $30/$45 per seat?  The web page:

   http://www.altuit.com/webs/altuit2/RunRev/altBrowser.htm

doesn't really give such licensing details.

Cheers

Peter
