Slight problem. The standard install assumes that one can get to the
internet from Windoze. I can't. WIn 7 refuses to talk to my obsolete
linksys router and the Linksys software disk doesn't work with Win XP or
Win 7. So is there a context zip that actually contains the software?

Linux and my router is of course no problem. but I want to run Context
on a windows partition. 

Do I need to run a TeXLive dvd disk instead?
