I downloaded the installationfile and double klicked it. The program started unpacking the files. When done I have to choose between: - run as current user - run as administrator + pasword When I choose "as current user" nothing happens And I am administrator but use no pasword and the installation program requires a password. Please help, I have at it for hours. Carel

The installation program certainly doesn't require a password. Your OS may require you to enter a password to gain elevated privileges. If you don't have an administrator password, simply hit Enter.
