Media BBC BASIC for Windows is supplied       On a CD Disk (Default) and an E-mail attachment       (if requested)       Note on e-mail attachments E-mail attachments are an extra service - they do not replace the CD disk. These are sent as well as proof of purchase. Because attachments are scanned for .exe files, we both have to do the following to get these files pass virus checkers. For more details (if required), please click on the links:- The setup.exe file is renamed it to setup.dat. If you cannot change this back again, do the following:- Check that your Windows Explorer* (that is Windows Explorer NOT Internet Explorer) is NOT set to Hide extensions for known file types, as this stops you from seeing and changing the extensions. To see what it is set to and to change it you need to go into Tools – Folder Options – View Unclick the ‘Hide extensions for known file types’ Remember to click the Apply button. * Don't get confused with Internet Explorer XP Service Pack 2 If you have Service Pack 2, after changing the setup name, Windows will block access to the file because it came from another computer.
