    directory.  The file that is downloaded is an executable with 
    a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

 2. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file 
    and follow the on-screen instructions. A new directory will be
    created named "NSSD_A.503", and the NSSD files will be expanded
    into a that directory and subdirectories will be created.

 4. After the NSSD has been created, you may delete the SoftPaq file
    downloaded in step 1.

    that was created by the SoftPaq.
