Unable to download the Windows FM7 tryout version via HTTP (the server wasn't responding this evening), I went to ftp.adobe.com and downloaded fm7_tryout.zip using FTP. I unzipped it into an empty directory (preserving the directory tree and filenames) and ran Setup.exe. Nothing happened visually. However, looking at the task manager's list of processes, it appears that Setup.exe spawned an instance of launch.exe, which continues to run until I kill it. But still nothing happens as far as I can tell.

Thinking the ZIP file might be damages, I downloaded it again with the same results.

Any suggestions how to install the Tryout version of FrameMaker? Thanks.
