Mark,

Known issues are that you must let shockwave auto-update when it elects to
add vList, and textChruncher Xtras. If you are viewing the e-Book reader on
a Mac then you must allocate extra memory to your browser. This e-Book
software and the shockwave plug-in can add several extra megabytes of
processor need in order to run properly. The e-Book was designed to work
best in a pop-up window. I have discovered that first time users that get
shockwave for the first time or recently upgrade to the latest version
sometimes experience a few hiccups when trying to run the first app. I have
discovered restarting the browser sometimes solves all this hiccup issues.
An on-line connection is required to download this vList version of the
revdocs.

I would like to know what difficulties you have experienced trying to run
this.

Thanks,
Mark Brownell
