Hi Andrew,

Using Internet Explorer version 5.5 I just downloaded the version 2 mentioned
by Steve.  I imported it (using FishWings) into a 32MB ProDOS image that I use
as a harddrive for Kegs32r3 (an Apple IIgs emulator).  Then from Kegs32r3 I
used GSHK version 1.0.6 (the ShrinkIt for the Apple IIgs) to unshrink it and
finally played the game.  All went without a hitch.
