Susan,

Thanks for your note.

While I already have the three other SW that you mention, I tried to
download and install the above. I believe I am experienced enough to
follow the elaborate instructions for installing it on Windows XP but
I did not succeed. It seems that it is no longer a freeware and needs
registration by payment. Could you please check. Thanks. Regards.

Hi Rishi,

http://www.scrabbleon.org/

"Networdz is a small, bug-free and FREE program that each scrabbler
uses to chat and play scrabble with one another. The ONLY requirement
is that you are using WINDOWS for your operating system."

arghhhh. . . . It's a fairly old program. I assumed this site had done
something clever re installing Networdz on Win XP. That will teach me
not to make rash assumptions. erm. . . *should* teach me not to make
rash assumptions. ;)

Anyway. . . I suggest you download the "Networdz For Windows 95/98/ME
Users" file and unzip it with IZArc or 7-Zip or whatever:

http://www.scrabbleon.org/exe/ttile95.exe
763 KB (781,618 bytes)

One of the files will be "install.bat" - run that and the program should
install itself in a C:\Networdz directory

I'm also using Win XP and all the bits and pieces seem to be there (I
set up a "me versus the computer" game and played a few words. . .

Just FYI you can download that same Networdz file (with a different file
name) here:
http://www.zamazam.com.au/scrabble/
http://www.zamazam.com.au/scrabble/scrabblesetup.exe
