HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive and change 
to that directory.  The file that is downloaded is an 11.7 MB 
self-extracting 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 to unpack the files.
It unpacks 2 files: 
   SETUP.EXE
   README.TXT 
You will be given the chance to specify the target directory for 
the files, or default to the download directory.

3. After the files have been created, you may delete the  
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. Refer to README.TXT for additional details on installing and 
using the software.  The installed Netelligent software requires a 
total of 36 MB hard drive space. (The installation process  requires 
more disk space than the final installation; this space is freed when 
the installation is complete).   

5. Run SETUP.EXE and follow the on-screen instructions.

6. After the installation has completed successfully, you may 
delete the SETUP.EXE file.
