Product downloads

All product downloads are provided as password-protected zip files to ensure that you get a valid download. Internet Explorer is known to often corrupt the download of self-extracting EXE files and some anti-virus products will block the download of regular zip files.

To unlock your downloads use the password "bcf" when prompted - three lowercase letters without the quotes.

Linux users can unpack the zip files with 'unzip' version 6.00 or later. Older versions of 'unzip' may not support password-protected archives.

    Linux users: If your distribution has a very new libstdc++ (e.g. 6.0.16) you may experience "input stream failure" errors when reading PLN input. The C++ runtime library has changed the way it sets stream error states, causing this error message. Please if you have this problem - the latest internal build no longer has this issue.
