I'd like to do this with my students on windows(XP) machines.
But when trying to install it i've got some problems:

I downloaded the Windows installer
gvr-1.1_win32.exe as well as
the zipped archive gvr-1.1.zip
(In fact I did several downloads from
different mirrors)

Both don't work on my machine:
The Windows-installer exits immediately, strangely
complaining:

  This program must be run under Win32

Trying to unzip the archive with Winzip
results invariably (with all different downloads)
in the message:

There are 712 bytes missing in the zip-file

and consequently Winzip is unable to process it.

Did anybody experience similar problems?
Does anybody know how to overcome them?

Regards,
Gregor
