16Chapter 1 Installing SREM

To replace an existing version of SREM, you must complete the uninstall process first. The uninstall process is launched when:

the SREM uninstall process is started manually (see "Accessing the uninstall application" (page 17) "Accessing the uninstall application" (page 17))

the install folder selected during an SREM installation already contains a version of the software

SREM saves the IP addresses that are visited to an encrypted network configuration (.xvn) file. Uninstalling SREM does not remove this settings file.

For details about creating a network configuration file, refer to "Saving a network configuration" (page 47) "Saving a network configuration" (page 47).

The network configuration file containing IP addresses visited from a previous SREM version is automatically used by a newly installed SREM version. If you do not wish to use the existing network configuration file, rename or delete the network configuration file before starting the SREM.

System requirements

Before you install SREM, ensure that you have the current installation file and that your system meets the following minimum requirements:

Java Runtime Environment 1.4.2_02 or later (www.java.com/)

Win 2k, Win NT 4.0 or later, Windows XP

Hardware: P3 1.2 GHz or higher

Memory: 512 MB

Hard drive space: 72.5 MB

Removing previous versions of SREM

Removing previous versions of SREM is an optional process. Multiple versions of SREM can exist on one system, as long as each version is installed in a separate location. If you decide to allow previous versions of SREM to remain, then you must choose a different folder to use during the installation process.

For details about the Uninstall process, refer to "Uninstalling SREM" (page 17) "Uninstalling SREM" (page 17).
