Fixing 2004

Fixing the broken installation that generates the yylex errors (see forum).  Do this as a safety precaution.
  1. Overwrite the contents of folder c:\pogamut\UT2004 with the contents of this zip file.
    1. Note that this overwrites the file installed above!
      1. The instructions for installation work perfectly on a "clean install."
      2. This overwrite is necessary because of the version of UT2004 that we/BUCS installed in our lab before term started.
    2. You will get asked some questions in pop-up windows.
      1. Yes, Yes, to the encryption questions, then make it do an overwrite.
