The difference to things like self-extracting ZIPs is that you double-click on the program and it decompresses itself (this process is invisible to the user), then runs normally. But I don't know if there is a thing like this on the PC. -- Andrew Gillett http://argnet.fatal-design.com/ ICQ: 12142937
