1. after unpacking dilbert0-1a.zip
# 2. files will be:
# \dilbert\dilbert.py
# \dilbert\cache\feedparser.py
# \dilbert\cache\background.jpg
# 3. login to xbox
# 5. copy files to e:\apps\xbmc\scripts\dilbert
# 6. go to the scripts section of xbmc
# 7. locate and enter dilbert folder under the folder tree on right hand side of screen
# 8. start dilbert by clicking on dilbert.py
# 9. for faster access to the script why not add it to the dialogsubmenu.xml menu?

xbmc does not have to be in e. make sure your settings : network is set to dhcp

e:\ is the directory that the script asks to install in. *btw, how old is your xbmc build? this was written for *2005-02-21 build so it needs to be at least this version or later (2005-03-26) has just been released.
