Hi Dustin
Not sure whether you would like me to continue here or on your site.
I have read BUGHUNT.TXT - twice - afraid most went way over my head.
Please prompt how to get this started - I see how to use - but cannot see
how to get to that bit safely.

Continuing here is fine, unless someone says otherwise... The information
is useful to all this way. I'm going to provide you with a few simple
instructions. when I encase a word in <> it means I want you to press the
button named in the brackets, not enter it too. Ok? :)

Alrighty...

Unzip BUGHUN21.ZIP to c:\bughunt
Click start>>run

if your using win9x, type
command <enter>

if your using windows 2000,xp, type
cmd <enter>

a black box window will open, don't panic. :)

type the following
cd\bughunt <enter>
bughunt <enter>

At this point, BugHunter will initialize. It's preconfigured to do a
recursive scan, so it'll startup by creating a temporary file. When it's
finished the Main Menu will be presented. BugHunter doesn't use your
mouse, you control BugHunter via your keyboard by pressing keys shown in
[brackets], A,B,C, etc.

When you have a made a selection, BugHunter will ask for your
confirmation; Give it by pressing y (or Y), if you have changed your
mind, press N (or any other key really) and BugHunter will return to the
main menu.

When your finished using the program, exit BugHunter from the main menu
by pressing Q.

then type
exit <enter>
and the black window box will go away.

BugHunter does create a logfile. To have a look:

Click start>>run
notepad c:\bughunt\bughunt.log <enter>


Please let me know how you do. :)

Hi Dustin
Thank you for your patience - I may stretch it to the limits :-)
The clear simple guide looks just the ticket.
I have downloaded afresh.
R click to Extract All'
The default to extract to is C:\Docs & Sets\Richard\Desktop\Bughun21
R click Next extraction executed and Bughu21 folder now on Desktop.
I am XPHome so - Start/Run/ - typed in cmd - hit Enter - got the black box
C:WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CMD.EXE
On the flashing cursor typed in cd\bughunt and hit Enter -
Got 'The system cannot find the path specified'
Also tried typing in just 'bughunt - this time I got 'bughunt is not
recognized as an internal or external command, operable programme or batch
file'
If you took a hundred people I would always be that 1%.
I have gone through these actions three times and I have tried to save the
extracted folder to My Docs and Prog Files.
I hit the same impasse each time.
I thought I had a smart idea - in the cmd black box I added 'desktop' then
cd\bughunt then enter but that smart idea didn't work either.
What have I missed/done wrong????????????
Rgds
Antioch

hehehe, the only thing you've done wrong is failed to extract
Bughun21.zip to c:\bughunt :)

You can change where the file will be extracted, please change it to c:
\bughunt and follow the rest of the instructions previously posted.
