 * I’m reading the “Read Me” file. And I am very sorry for needing my hand held 
   at every microstep along the way, but I don’t know what to do next.
 * Number 1 indicates that I need to “unzip the package in an empty directory.” 
   I’m sorry but “unzip” what? And which package? Empty directory?
 * Again, thank you.

 * Hi, thank you very much! I was able to unzip the file by downloading the trial
   version of WinRAR and installing it.
 * However, I’m not quite sure what to do next. What I see before me in the opened
   file of “wordpress-1[1].5.1.3.zip – WinRAR (evaluation copy)” is “Add”, “Extract
   to”, “Test”, “View”, “Delete”, etc….. Please help!
 * Bottom line: I would like to start a personal blog. I used to use Blogger.com;
   however, their limited organizing tools as far as categorization of topics made
   me seek another “blog engine, ” or whatever the proper term is.
 * Again, thank you in advance for your assistance. I really appreciate it.

 * Hi, thank you for your reply. I am trying to download the software. I go to “
   download,” hit “download.zip” and then try to “open file.” I get a message, stating,“
   The compressed (zipped) Folder is invalid or corrupted.” I then hit “ok.”
 * I use SBC Yahoo DSL, Microsoft Office XP, and Internet Explorer on a Sony Vaio
   Intel Pentium 4 Processor 2.80 GHz1.
 * If you need more information, please let me know and I’ll do my best to provide
   it with specificity. Thank you very much!
