What's the URL for getting this animal, i.e. FF31? And what more 
software does She need to install it? As I'm running WSeB, She thinks 
that the gcccore(sp?) is installed, but can She get info which build it 
is? The last package that was downloaded is GCC-3.3.5-csd6.zip, but is 
there a newwer version out there? Perhaps the Warpzilla can get info on 
this as well on freetype, exceptq and other stuff that's needed for 
getting FF31 working? And can it use the old profile data that FF 
17.0.1ESR uses or must it be converted? In the README.OS2 for FF45 there 
  was some dire warnings about compatability with the old .sql files 
that FF 10.0.2 and 17.0.1ESR uses. Best would be if FF31 is compatible 
with the current .sql files, then it would only be to install, 
eventually upgrading GCC and freetyp and then kick it off with a .cmd 
file. She's not acquainted with the Run! program, so She uses .cmd files 
instead for launcing the various FF versions.
