NOTE : All the software on this site is written in Visual Basic 6. This means that they need the VB6 runtime files to run. If any of the programs refuse to start up and report that "MSVBVM60.DLL" couldn't be found, you need to download them. If the program reports that a different file is missing, try installing them anyway (MSVBVM60.DLL isn't the only file). If it doesn't fix your problem, contact support. 

You can download Visual Basic 6 Runtime from Microsoft : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/release.asp?ReleaseID=12704 


Requirements :
--------------

 1) PC capable of running Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT 4 or Windows 2000.

 2) Visual Basic 6 Run time libraries.To keep the size of the BreakFile file down it was decided not to distribute the Visual Basic 6 run time dlls with the program files. The main reason for this was to shorten download times as the file is nearly 1.5Mb in size. There is a good chance that you may already have this file on your system because it is distributed with a large number of applications and shareware programs. 


You can download the Visual Basic 6 Run time libraries from :
