RE: New setup uploaded - 2.218.2.7


Some feedback about the new version 2.218.2.7.

First, the good news: no parsing errors when 'Install from local
directory' is selected!

and the bad news: before any parsing errors might be seen, setup.exe
crashes:

   setup.exe - Application Error

   The instruction at "0x004121f2" referenced memory at "0x00000000".
The memory could not be "written".  

   Click on OK to terminate the program
   Click on CANCEL to debug the program

This error was repeated in three tries with restarting setup.exe, but it
only occurred when I selected 'Install from local directory'.  Both
'Install from Internet' and 'Download from Internet' were able to run to
completion without any errors, so anyone who needs to get the software
shouldn't be stopped by the above error.
