Winter Fun Pack for Windows

[howard]

A few months ago I installed MicroSoft Winter Fun Pack for Windows XP. I
don't remember the details, but think it was available for people who
already had Plus! for XP.

Yesterday I had reason to log on to Administrator, and it tried installing
this, but couldn't find where to install it from. I cancelled out. Today
I logged into administrator again.

I either need to find out where it is so that it can complete the
installation, or tell it to stop trying. How do I do this?

Winter is over. Try again in December!

Damn, great minds think alike. I was going to suggest something similar. I
think he should go and install the Microsoft Summer Fun Pack. Just in case,
XP all by itself isn't fun enough to run.

The feature I use is to have it periodically change my background picture.
But I certainly don't need that when I log onto Administrator. Someone
else gave me links where I can find the pack and where I can find a utility
to stop Administrator from trying to finish the installation. I hope to
try one of them soon.
