Dear JW,

I need to do that too.  Nonetheless, I am just entering the conversation.  Do 
I enter into Third-Party Software, specifically.  Is it:  
'http://ppa.launchpad.net'?  Then what do I do to enter the key number?  
And, is the keynumber the one you showed on this email, or where and how do I 
get the right one?  I have just reinstalled and this is one of the things I 
must do that I don't remember the exact process.  Thanks for any help you may 
provide.

Steven
