[cw-discuss] TaxCut 2007, TaxCut 2006 and IE6 -- Some other TaxCut 2007 issues

[John . Nolan]

Here is an idea. While installing TaxCut2007, I remeber seeing a
little link at the bottom of the (I think) update page. The gist
was "take me to a page which describes how to update without
direct internet access". I see no reason why that same scheme
wouldn't work in Crossover.
