Bob -

The fix is as follows...

1. Find the amigalogo.iff file in the /docs directory and import into
   a graphics converter or paint program.

2. Without ANY changes, save the picture as an IFF file to the same 
   directory, overwriting the original.

3. Restart the program, and it should work ok. The distribution file has
   a bad header record wwth zeroes in it, thus the guru.
