Jerry,

Ah, so it's an executable file! I didn't realize that. The rest I understand 
perfectly. Why don't they say this somewhere, I mean why don't they explain 
what you just did? I can't find this instruction anywhere! Well, thanks. I 
assume it'll work, of course.

You download the voices to a file of your choice, such as "downloads." Then
run the downloaded file. When it is finished, it will say you need to
restart your computer for the voice to work. That can be a little slow if
your doing a lot of voices, so you might want to escape out of that option
until you're ready to restart. When you do an insert control S, you'll see
an option for RealSpeak Solo.
