Zip version

Our standard download and install uses Windows Installer 2.0 (a Microsoft technology) directly from our web site. In rare cases, this can fail (proxy server, anti-virus settings, general problems with IE). Also, this method only works if the target PC is connected to the internet.

As an alternative, we have packaged together a zip version. You can download the install files in one go (23MB) as follows:

  1. Download the following:
    http://www.ability.com/download4/zip/ability4_16.zip
  2. Unzip to new folder
  3. Run setup.exe to start install (use Start/Run)
  4. Or copy to CD to transfer to separate PC.

The above comes with US and UK spell/thesaurus/grammar checker. Additional languages are available:

Dutch
German
French
Hungarian
Scandanavian
Spanish
Portuguese

Add any/all of the above to the install set (the folder you unzip the main download to) and these languages will be available as install options.

A note on non-broadband connections

The zip file is close to the upper limit in size for a non-broadband connection - it takes approximately 2 hours to download on a dial-up. Depending on your browser, you should be able to "resume" broken connections, so if your line is dropped for some reason, you don't have to start from the beginning.
