I don't know. I mean they came with the 5.1a9t version that David put up
for me.

I stopped messing with the registry to test and just made sure the files in
the Tame 5.1 folders were all the latest ones. There are two such folders,
one in Program Files and one in My Documents. I can't figure out the
difference, and David is not good at communications (doesn't answer emails
promptly and doesn't explain or state things clearly in the emails he does
send).
