MBN: patch-update 2008


Dear MBN user, you have most likely arrived to this page via a link from RESource, the web browser from MBN. The URLs it is pointing to will become invalid in a few month time. To make sure your version of MBN keeps working, please download this patch.

It comes as a zip file that you have to unpack in the mbn directory. if you have installed mbn in D:\\programs\mbn\ then extract the archive in that mbn folder.

Download now!

For more detailed help, please read on the rest of the page...

How to install the MBN Patch

Download or open the file


When prompted select either open or save. If you select save, remember where you saved the zip file and then go and open it from the saved location.


Extract

When you open the archive, you are presented with a list of file that need to be replaced. Do not take too much attention to them. Click on extract (it might be slightly different in your own unpacking software).


Exctract in the MBN folder

Navigate your drives till you find the relevant folder. It is most likely in C:\\programs\mbn and will look like this...

Make sure
(1)the "mbn" folder is highlighted
(2)and that the address finishes with "mbn" .


If you are in the correct place, you will be told that the folder already contains these files and would you like to replace them.

Click on Yes to all


When the extraction is finished, you can close the archive and restart resources. Changes will only be visible after you have closed and reopen the RESource brower.


The changes mainly affect the WWW resource and some occasional links in the text.

Please let us know if there are any bugs you find.
