Hi,
As I can't run freeroute from my internet connection because of commodo what
changes do I have to make to the folllowing jnlp files in order to run
freeroute on Winxp?
All the relevant files (freeroute.jnlp,help.jnlp,router.jar and jh.jar) are
stored on my desktop in a folder called freeroute.
FREEROUTE.JNLP

I hope someone can help me to get freeroute running on my pc.
Thanks.
