Hi Paul,

We've just discovered that our web server assigns the wrong MIME type to .msi
files, and that's most likely what's causing your troubles.  The web server will
of course be fixed, but in the meantime you might want to try the zipped
installer I've also put onto the Hugs downloading page.  That format should
download without being correupted by line-feed translations.  Then just unzip it
and fire off the installer.
