Downloading and Installing Micscape Magazine Zip files.

Each Micscape Magazine issue from Jan 04 is available to subscribers as a monthly download.

Before Mar04 the download was password protected. Afterwards, this protection was removed and the monthly file was changed from a .exe file to a simple .zip file. When unzipping the download (extracting the files) please
check the 'use folder names' in the unzip dialogue window, and unzip all contents to C:\ (your C drive) to keep your copy of the magazine up to date.

The c:\micscapemagazine directory is automatically selected by the way the files are stored in the zip file, so
do not try to unzip to C:\micscapemagazine directly as this will create a sub folder in that directory and disable the index page.

Important Notes:
The Password to unzip
all Pre-March Micscape downloads is:-

x50nPk47
(the zero is numerical, the P is capital)
This is irrespective of your own password for entering the subs area.

MAC USERS require stuffit Expander. Get it here...

Using the downloads on your computer
Once you have unzipped the files onto your C drive into the micscapemagazine directory, you simply open the index.html file in that directory using your browser. This will give you access to everything downloaded from the subs area. If you click on something and it doesn't appear, it's likely you have failed to download that particular resource.

Supersearch Zip Downloads
These downloads are html files zipped up to save time downloading them. There is a single html file per zip file which when extracted will be over 2Mbytes in size. Once you have downloaded the zip file, and extracted the html file, you can use your browser to open the html file and visit the 1000 plus sites linked in the page. You will need to be connected to the internet to actually visit the sites I have included.

I have used software to query the worlds web engines and hunt down all the sites and pages more than 35% relevant to the keyword used. So now, if you want to find all the best pages about Desmids, say - you only need to download the supersearch file, and use it to 'surf the web' to over a 1000 relevant sites. This should save you a lot of time.

I recommend you download and unzip the files to the micscapemagazine directory on your C drive. I will include links to these files in the downloaded subs directory page so you can open them from one place.
Slideset Downloads
These downloads are for subscribers usin the free trial version of Microscope fo the PC software. Do not change the target location for where the contents of the zip file go to. Do no run Microscope for the PC during the unzipping process. Microscope for the PC is a software microscope which runs installed slidesets. A new slideset wil be available for download each month.
