ListServe Subcribers,

It turned out that the fixed versions were up at that site the whole time
we just didn't change the text on our update to say that the current
version is 3.0 L..  That change has been made.  Go ahead and download that
version and see if it works. I apologize for the confusion. If you have any
other questions please email me back.
