   I'm getting this too now. I had everything working perfectly yesterday,   
   but today...when it gets to the Finder, an error dialog appears:   
      
   Error 2: Check that TCP/IP, the HTML Tool, and the SIS fonts, have all   
   been installed.   
      
   They all definitely are. I even reinstalled the Webber components from v1.11.   
      
   I can only guess since using Check File to update Check file itself has   
   this been a problem...or was it Breakdown and Chew Bagger the last   
   things I installed (before reinstlaling Webber v1.11).   
      
   Disabling Check File PIF means the Error 2 dialog doesn't appear on   
   Finder ready.   
      
   However, new error messages now appear for all the apps:   
      
   Webber: "Webber Requires HTML Fonts..." you can click OK to return to Finder.   
      
   Spectrum: "Requires HTML Tool Error was $8201" (text error that   
   requires reboot).   
      
   Is it possible that older releases of software can overwrite newer   
   tools, fonts, system extensions?   
      
   Just a thought, but I'd like to suggest perhaps only releasing a 32meg,   
   self booting image that includes any app update in your internet suite   
   instead of individual releases. That way, you'll know it all works   
   together with all the dependencies of Marinetti, required fonts, tools,   
   system extensions, etc. If it can also remove those same tools, fonts,   
   etc. from the individual installers of each app as part of the suite,   
   that could remove potential older versions of dependencies as well.   
      
   Just an idea, but I imagine most people are using mass storage on a   
   real IIGS or emulator anyway, so downloading a single source of truth   
   for the latest version sounds like a potential answer.
