Tested the 32 bits version on XP Pro.

Looks good, but I had to manually uninstall the beta 36 first.
(Nice complains about an already existing version of the product).
Could it be automated (or at least ask for a confirm/cancel before
automatically uninstall ?)

I had no problem uninstalling (via Parameters+Add/Remove Applications),
but Joe User might not be so technically inclined. I also noticed the
uninstall menu entry.

Side note: the warning about an existing product did not specified
clearly (in bold, flashing, red & yellow) the name of the product: I
could have uninstalled povray 3.6 for nothing...
