Solar Fire 5.1.2 Fix for Windows 98/ME/95

DO NOT use on Windows XP, NT, or 2000, or with Solar Fire version 5.0.x

This file is not an update of Solar Fire, but a fix for an internet problem with the Microsoft Windows system files. If you are not experiencing any problems with your internet connection or with downloading from the Windows Update web site, then this fix is not recommended.

This fix is only needed if your Astrolabe CD says version 300D on the label. Version 300E shipping as of 9/11/2003 has this fix already installed. Windows XP, NT, or 2000 are not affected and have no problems with Solar Fire 5.1.2
