• Step 2 - Necessary Software - You will need software. Most newer operating systems have a built-in dialer to access the Internet (e.g. for Windows 9x, ME, 2000 or XP, it is called "dial-up networking") Most Web Browsers, operate off of such dial-up software. Explorer (version 5.0 or later) is highly recommended as such a browser, although Netscape(6.0 or above) and Firefox will also work. You may want to have your own copy of the chat software, mIRC, to join our virtual discussions (although direct connections are provided from the web page). Finally, you will need a copy of real audio's "real player" or Windows Media Player (preferably 9.0) if you want to take advantage of the audio/video portions of our web pages. If your machine is not so equipped, click here to obtain a copy of any of these software programs.
