Naaa. It hasn't been open since about 1996.

Err ... there's no install.bat file.
You mean modInstall.bat?
You could do that too. It might even be better to use that coz it might
contain commands to install other modules as well.
> and to what proxy?
If you're in the UAE, use the same proxy you normally use.
People usually set proxy1.emirates.net.ae:8080
If you're on an ADSL line (transparent proxy) or even on a dialup
line these days (flaky transparent proxy) you might even be able to
forget the proxy command.
> this should initiate the LPprxy file to install through the new right ?
No, it creates a new modInstall.bat each time. Once you edit it as above
you better run it immediately.

Still the best solution is to get a new firewalls.xml.
I'd rather debug problems with that than try to step everyone through
this module installation procedure, if I can.
