Why doesn't the program work on Windows NT? That is usually
where I work and I don't want to go into Windows 95 unless
I have to since all of my other work is in Windows NT.

Oops - found it. Try ftp://terra.ru.com/pub/gamos/povpro/povpro.txt
instead of ftp://terra.ru.com/pub/gamos/povray/povpro.txt (and modify
the other URL's in the same manner).
