Some quick "bug" report to the guy building the Windows installer: Using
JNLP for the setup is a nice idea, but with one drawback: As the setup is
run with the same privileges as your browser, and especially security-aware
people usually browse with a "non-Administrator" account, the setup cannot
finish (on Windows XP) because it cannot install the service. Detecting
this and reacting appropriately will be needed for the final version
because like this you will lose lots of potential users (I for myself will
not redownload all the stuff with a browser running as Administrator...).
Appropriate reactions would be: Pop up a "Run as" dialog, or install
shortcuts in start menu that enable you to run Freenet as an application
(not as a service). If you already do this: It did not work for me...
Good luck with Freenet 0.7 :)
