-<h2>Note on Windows Vista</h2>
+<h2>Note on Windows Vista/7/8</h2>
<p>
- We are trying to fix the Vista problem of it repeatedly asking you permission to run BibleDesktop.
+ On Windows Vista, 7 or 8 it may repeatedly ask you permission to run BibleDesktop.

<h2>Note on WebStart</h2>
<p>
+ WebStart was provided as a simple way to run BibleDesktop. As of Java 6 update 23 a bug in Java caused
+ it to stop working. Once this is fixed we will restore WebStart.

+<!--
+<p>
WebStart works on all platforms and does not require an active connection to the internet after the program
is run for the first time. To use WebStart you will need to have Java on your computer. You can get Java from
<a href="http://www.java.com">www.java.com</a>. Once Java is installed, you can run BibleDesktop by
clicking on the WebStart button. The first time you run, you will be asked if you trust our application.

When you are offered a choice to create desktop shortcuts do so. It will make running BibleDesktop so much
easier. You won't need to come back to this page.
