Nkana-Kitwe Map: Use IE to View the Map on the GNR

1. Start Internet Explorer 7.
2. Go to the Autodesk web site and download the Autodesk® Design Review 2008 (ADR) plug-in. Click on the following link to go to the download page:
   Autodesk® Design Review 2008 (ADR) plug-in
   You can also get there by going to the Autodesk home page (www.autodesk.com) and clicking on the Autodesk® Design Review 2008 download graphic in the lower-right of the page, or by typing "Design Review" in the Autodesk web page's "Search" button.
3. Fill out and complete the required fields on the Autodesk page and click "Submit" to download the ADR plug-in.
   The download time should take not more than a few minutes using a high-speed Internet connection. Download time might be much slower if you have a slow connection.
4. After the plug-in has downloaded from the Autodesk web site, a File Download dialog box displays.
   Click the "Save" button to display the "Save as" dialog box and select the directory where you want to save the file.
5. Click the "Run" button to begin the installation. If Windows displays an "Internet Explorer Security Warning" dialog box, click "Run" to begin the installation.
6. Complete the installation by clicking the appropriate buttons as you normally do when installing software.
7. When the installation is complete, you can confirm that the ADR plug-in is installed correctly by checking that it appears as the "Autodesk Design Review" menu item under "Autodesk" on your Windows Start menu.
8. Exit Internet Explorer 7 and then start it afresh and go to the GNR maps page with the "Interactive Nkana-Kitwe Map".
   www.greatnorthroad.org/maps/nkana_kitwe/full_map.php
   Internet Explorer should now ask if you want to install the WHIP! add-on.
   Tip: Look for this message near the top of the IE7 browser window.
9. Click "Yes" to confirm that you do want to install the WHIP! add-on.
   Internet Explorer will now ask if you want to install the ActiveX control.
10. Click "Yes" to confirm that you do want to install the ActiveX control.
    Internet Explorer will report that it is waiting for the URL.
11. If your IE7 browser is configured for security warnings, you might now be asked to confirm the installation of the WHIP! software. You will therefore be prompted to do so by an "Internet Explorer Security Warning". Click "Yes" to install.
    This is IE and your computer's way of making sure you are aware that you are installing software. It is behaving cautiously. This is a good thing.
    If you do not get this warning, go on to the next step.
12. When the install is complete, the map should begin displaying. When the map is finished displaying, exit IE7. Then restart IE7 and go to the GNR page for the "Interactive Nkana-Kitwe Map" to make sure that all is working:
    www.greatnorthroad.org/maps/nkana_kitwe/full_map.php
    The map should load without any further input from you. This is how it will now always work. You will not have to do all these steps again. These are only a one-time set of procedures.
