Windows XP users please note. In order to view the three executable files listed, you should select "Save" when prompted, rather than run. Once the file is saved to your computer, select "Run" If you do not follow this procedure, you will receive a windows error message stating that the file js32.dll is missing, and the file will not open.

These three files are safe to view. They contain Authorware content. Because most computers do not have the Authorware web player installed, and because the Authorware web player is an extensive download, I chose to compile the files as executables.
