Downloading

To download a program, simply click on the link and select the Save file option if your browser prompts you. It is best to create a new folder (directory) beforehand and choose to download the file into that folder.

Each file will take different times to download on different systems. Invaders is a small program and should not take very long to download. Message Pad is larger, so please be patient.

Each file is in compressed ZIP format, so you will need a copy of Winzip (Windows shareware program from Nico Mak Computing) or Pkunzip (DOS shareware program from Pkware). It is worth getting one of these programs as most compressed files on the Internet are now in ZIP format.

Once you have downloaded a ZIP file, use your decompression program to extract the necessary files from the ZIP file (full instructions should come with the program itself). Invaders should run straight away once extracted. To set up Message Pad on your system, the setup program (SETUP.EXE) will have to be run after extraction.
