In that case I assume it isn't my version (2.10), because that has my
e-mail address in the !!Read-me file. Or perhaps you deleted that file.

If it *is* my version, make sure the variable Fetch_NS$Install$Dir is
set and doesn't contain anything odd.

Check the file Settings in <Choices$Write>.Fetch_NS.

If you have any further questions, please contact me directly (or via
comp.sys.acorn.apps or archive-online), as this doesn't have anything to
do with NetSurf itself.
