Well, after one full hour of connection and download, the 1,7 Mb (!!)
were here.
Then off with unzipping, and an attempt to start the setup routine.
Alas: "Error: Could not copy ver.dl_ to c:\windows\system\ver.dll"
 - and the setup stopped.
Now what can this be? There is already a file ver.dll in
c:\windows\system. So SETUP shouldn't insist on copying a new one
there.
However, it seems that one full hour of download of a demo version was
really badly spent money.
On the other hand, it could be that I have overseen something that
should have been done in an other way.
I'm sure somebody will give some useful advice.
