Manual Installation
The software is very easy to install when you already installed the java runtime environment (JRE) in your computer. Please make sure that your current version is 1.4, or the latest version. Step 2 explains how to view the version. If not, don't feel panic. Download it by yourself. The SUN's website is http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/download.html.
Click here to download the zip format package, and click here to download the exe format package. Note: both of them are the same, but you do not need the unzip software if you download the so-called self-extract file (*.exe). Then just follow the install instruction below. Good luck.
Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000 | Solaris SPARC/x86 and Linux x86
Step 1. Download Java Runtime Environment (JRE), and install it.
Step 2. Make sure the java runtime environment runs well. Click "Start" button, choose "Run..." menu item in the popup menu. Type "command", then click "OK". Microsoft(R) Windows DOS will appear. It is usually a black window. Type the command of "java -version" and return, then you will get some messages.
JRE 1.4.0 or latest version is required. It's done if you can get the information of version.
- C:\>java -version

You must set the path by yourself when the command of "java" CAN NOT be found. We assume you install JRE at the directory of C:\JRE.
For Windows95/98/ME users: Run the command of "sysedit", then edit C:\autoexec.bat. Add one line at the end of file. It is "SET PATH=%PATH%;C:\JRE\bin". Reopen the dos window, or reboot the machine.
For WindowsNT users: Login as administrator, then open the control panel. Double-click the icon of System. Choose the tab of Environment. Input "Path" in the box of Variable, and "%Path%;C:\JRE\bin" in the box of Value, then click Set. Reopen the dos window, or reboot the machine.
For Windows2000 users: Open the control panel, then double-click the icon of System. Choose the tab of Advanced. Click the botton of environment variables. There is a list on the top of panel. Double-click "Path" item. Add ";C:\JRE\bin" at the end of Variable Value. Click OK. Click OK again. Reopen the dos window, or reboot the machine.
Step 3. Create a new directory or folder in your computer, for example, C:\NeutralityTest.
Step 4. Download the software package. Unzip it into the directory if you download the zip version. Double click the file if you download the so-called self-extract file (*.exe), then choose the directory.
Step 5. Go to the directory, then double-click run.bat, a MS-DOS batch file. The user-friendly window will appear.
