Oops.  I see on the POV download page that there is now only one 3.6.1c 32-bit
Windows version of the program available. I thought there was a separate SSE2
version(?) but it's no longer there(?)  So... have I been using an SSE2 version
all along?? Or has SSE2 been incorporated into it only recently??  Confusion!
Anarchy! Help!
