Just as an adjunct to David's comments:

If you need the Interlink files, we have them available for download on
our web site in a zip file that includes a "read me" file explaining how
to use them.  Go to:  http://nospin.com/pc/files003.html
You will find the zip file on this page as:  MS Interlink (37k)
