Its the 2005 version. It came with printed out instructions, similiar
to the ones you posted but not exactly.

I've never understood the fascination with the loopback adapter. I
have never needed one (don't even know what one would look like,
lol!). I've also not had any problems with it 'phoning home'. I'm
running XP SP2 with the firewall turned on, but it's never asked me
about allowing any EPC net traffic through. I wonder if all this jazz
is for an older version or something.
Kaleb, do you have the 04/2005 version or a different one? Did the
disc included the 'Read Me' file that I authored (sent a link in a
recent post), or did it have a different installation guide (possible
a MS Word document)?

Kaleb,
Just got off the phone with Indy. Here's what you have to do.
1. Install Microsoft Loopback Adapter.
2. Disable all other Network Adapters.
3. Start the KeyGen program and Minimize.
4. Start EPC install program.
5. When the install program gets to the screen that has the MAC Address
of the Loopback adapter. Write it down and go back to the KeyGen put the
MAC Addy into the KenGen. You will get a code back. Copy & Past that
number
into the EPC. Chose the Install Options you want.
6. Follow the Instructions from that point on.
_*NOTE*_ If you have a firewall that allows blocking programs from
accessing
the Internet select DENY. The EPC wants to be like ET and Phone Home. If
that happens MB will shut it down.
7. Reboot the computer. Wait at least 5 min before Launching the EPC,
There are
2 services in XP that the EPC needs running before it will start.
Those services
take a few min. to start up.
BTW if you Start EPC and it won't let you access any data or comes up in
German
just shut it down wait a min. or two and restart.
Also if you have the WIS program Install it first. The WIS install procedure
is the same as the EPC.
If this doesn't work let me know.
Russ W.
