People who see this error message are people who are running NT. The
reason they see this is because the cd installs uncracked versions of
the libraries needed. Thats why you must manually copy the win95
versions ( which are cracked ) off the cd or directory you were
installing from.
This is the reason for the instruction below, quoted from my page.

Its all copyrighted material, so VW could put a stop to this really
fast. I'm hoping they are just turning a blind eye to it all, since I
would assume they know that cracked versions of their cd are out among
VW car enthuisiasts. I think what would actually piss them off is if
somebody sold the cd, or gave it to a dealer who could then use it to
get around the subscription fee they pay each month to accesss new
versions of the cd.
