Well screw this!  You and Paul have a lot of users still running XP to
include myself.  Makes me glad I held off upgrading to V9.xxxx.

Actually, the country files and award databases are uploaded to my website.
They would have to be installed manually.

The latest country file is always here:

    http://www.country-files.com/dx4win/download9/dx4win9_cty.zip

I have not done anything like this for the custom awards and I've blocked
the directory listing.

If you use these files you are ON YOUR OWN.  I do NOT want to support this
method of updating DX4WIN 9.  I'd rather you upgrade your operating system.
Seriously.  I'm not joking.
