Blackbird,
I've learned that the hashing process does not require you to be on-line but what about this (new) "verifying file" step...does it require that I remain connected to LW for the process to be completed?
I never let the before mentioned 45Mg file to finish this verification and later found it in my shared folder...and when I finally installed the program I did not have any problems with it ...yet.
