CAL Launcher software - for Windows 2000 and XP only. This has been revised for 2003-4. If you have a personal copy of the CAL Launcher (rather than using a copy in a shared folder) you will need to replace it with this new version.

Iolis client files - The Iolis Law courseware package on the CAL server requires extra software to be installed on the user's PC.
