hello,
For the better part of the past 24 hours, I have been ploding my way through the downloading prosses. I have incountered numerous minor problems and (with much help from this forum) have, so far, been able to get through them all. I am, however, now stuck. I followed and re-followed every direction to a "t" but, when I went to login, it told me that I was not running the correct program (or something like that) for the server. So I restarted my computer and went to update again, hoping that might help. It didn't. A message popped up saying that it encountered an error and had to be shut down (I am on windows XP). I am thinking that something might have happend when I "unzipped" the files originally, but I can not figure out how to go back and repeat that step. If any one would be so kind as to let me know where to go from here it would be greatly apreciated. Thank you in advance.

I'm so sorry that updating is such a hassle with this release.. We can only try to improve it as time goes on :}
Nilrem made a very thorough but basic list of update steps in this post (http://hydlaa.com/smf/index.php?topic=24618.msg272774#msg272774). I would suggest that you start with a clean install right now (which unfortunately will mean uninstalling your current version entirely), and if you have problems with any of the steps posted, mention so in this thread with as much detail as you can.
