Lennart,

I have problem installing the Pali Text Reader itself. when I start
installation I get an prompt to upgrade my .net framework to version 2.0.5.
when I click the button for the .net framework version 2.0.5 to download,
the download starts BUT after doing about 10 to 15%, it invariably stops and
disconnnects. I have tried at least 20 times but it always stops midway. I
have also verified that there is nothing wrong with my internet connection
because my other activity on the internet does not stop. I also tried other
larger downloads and they all worked.

Please help. Is there some place I can download the .net framework from the
internet without using the built-in d/load facility in the PTR installer?
