I got screwed, too. I never did get a CP2000 CD. Funny
that I got the v.41 SP0 before most knew it was out.
There is a SP1 you can install. That's what I did.
But, it doesn't matter. My FW1 box is so messed up
right now, I'll be reinstalling the OS and FW1 -- then
importing my objects/rules.
So, at least you're not alone :)
