Download them. 2. Construct them The first method can take forever if you don't have a fast connection. The second method takes forever, even if you have a fast processor. Both methods require a lot of real estate on your hard disks. After all that hassle, you'll need to write probing code. Then you'll pull your hair out debugging it. :-) In the end, it's worth it. -- James
