>Hello Jos,
>Thanks for the info. I think that is similar to the concept that Hilmar uses, and I can see the advantage to it. However, having large .exe's run from local hard drive reduces network traffic...whether or not it really has a significant impact, I don't know. I suppose the two concepts could be combined.

In principle, I like the idea of reducing network traffic, by copying the EXE to the local drive.

However, reading messages related with loaders in the download section, it seems to me that no provision is made to run older versions. This may be important, for emergencies, if the programmer screws up in the latest version.

Can you confirm this?
