Experimental ClickOnce Installations

Please note: These programs were compiled with Build 50727 of the .NET Framework 2.0, which is the version of .NET 2.0 finalized in November 2005. These programs will not install with earlier beta versions of .NET 2.0. If you don't have any version of .NET 2.0 currently installed, the setup program properly installs Build 50727 from Microsoft's web site. (As of November 11, 2005)
