its the same : "ERROR: Could not create application path for properties file and stubs - please create it manually and set read/write premissions: "

i also think that this is PC related problem but i formatted and reinstalled windows 3 times with different CD's ...

thanks for your help and efford btw..

The problem is that on your system the normally always present environment variable "APPDATA" seems not to be present.

I just sent you an email with a download link for a version that falls back to a default folder if this is the case. That should get you going.
