INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: 
1. Download the SoftPaq file to a directory on your hard drive. 

LINUX USERS: After downloading the SoftPaq file, verify that the SoftPaq file 
has a .tgz extension. If it does not, change it to .tgz. Some browsers 
automatically rename the file with a .tar extension, which makes the SoftPaq 
unusable. 

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions.
