This screen explains that you must read the included WordPad text.
The process will not continue until you close the WordPad window.

Choose from the drop down list the option you want, we suggest the Microsoft Winsock.
Click on OK.

If everything is ok and you don't have any other applications running, click Restart Now
Or choose Do not Restart, close down the other applications (saving any work), then restart the computer.

Enter a login name in the Sign on as text box.

Enter a password in the Password text box.
Note: It may be an idea to note these down somewhere so as not to forget them.
Or you could leave them blank, but this would not be secure, has anyone else access to your computer?

Enter the site ID as shown above, you can find this on your registration card or on the diskette and
then enter the site secret. Remember to write this down, don't forget this as it's not recoverable.

Click on More
