That stands for "Self Desolving Arcive" You simply load them up and run them. It will tell you its about to write files to your disk drive. Make sure you have enough room for them. The LNX files are not so easy. They are files that have been squished together with a program called LYNX. The problem with this program is that there are over thirteen versions of it, and several are not compatable with each other. Iwould recomend that you load that file ,8 and list it. You should get one line number that will tell you which version to use to un-pack it. ctfm
