P.S. on below: 1. In case my wording confused anyone, I didn't simply delete the icon of the program on my Start menu. I used the Uninstall function in the Ipodder submenu. 2. After giving up trying to install newly downloaded Ipodder 2.0.03, I tried to reinstall plain old version 2.0, which I had effortlessly installed the first time. But here, too, I was stopped by the same error message as I describe below, in exactly the same way. So it doesn't seem to involve some glitch or bug in the programs themselves or their installation procedures that's at fault. But if it's something on my computer that's resisting or sabotaging the installation, I have no idea what that might be. As before, knowledgeable advice will be appreciated.

I was about to explore the interface and its menus and options with Jaws, when I got a notice that there was an update available that resolved some pI-Tunes related issue. Well, I don't use I tunes, but, thinking this would be a harmless and easy procedure, I clicked yes to allow myself to be taken online to a download site that I think was called EasyNews. I found the link for downloading Ipodder for Win XP, eventually was delivered the download after a few minutes' wait in queue, I suppose. Then I clicked on the executable file in its destination folder to begin the installation. I assumed it would overwrite and supersede my earlier Ipodder version with no difficulty, Immediately upon beginning the actual installation process, I got a dramatic Windows error tone and the message that some file couldn't be written. Well, I didn't know what that implied or signified, so I tried out the Retry option, which didn't work, then the Ignore option, which also didn't work, and finally cancelled the installation. I wondered, maybe it's in conflict with the existing copy of Ipodder that's already on my computer? So, just to be on the safe side, I went to the Ipodder icon on my programs menu and uninstalled the old copy. Then I attempted to run the installation of the new V. 2.0.3 again. Same thing happened. It couldn't write one file, I clicked on Ignore (why would it be offered, this Ignore option, if it didn't help?) and tried to proceed, but then it couldn't write the *next* file. Well, I don't know what any of this means, but I figured I'd better just cancel and come here to ask if anyone know what's happening to me, and what I might do to rectify it, get Ipodder set up again, and begin to learn how to use it.
