OPEN FILE
To save space and reduce transfer time, we have COMPRESSED all files. You will need to uncompress the files before you can work with them. We have compressed the files using the "zip" program. A commun unzip utility for Windows is WinZip, which you can download from the web. If you don't already have WinZip installed, follow this link to install WinZip on your computer:
