   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.
   The number of files to be created and total file size is displayed.
   You will be given the chance to specify the target directory for 
   the files, or default to the download directory.

   self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

    when it has finished.
