Jonathan and others,
   the current Welty.exe installer has a problem.  The default directory
for installing Eudora is listed as "Eudora", not "c:\Eudora".  If someone
simply accepts the default, the eudora program gets installed into
c:\windows\temp\eudora, not c:\eudora.  I believe the Start menu icons come
out wrong, trying to point to c:\eudora when it isn't actually installed
there.
   If you press the Browse button, the path  becomes fully qualified.

Definitely need to fix this before the public gets a hold of it.

Rob
