I did exactly steps 1 through 4 again and this time got an error message saying 
the
file had to be owned by root.  Does that mean I have to download the file while 
signed

in as root?  I was in root during the attempt at installation.  I was not in 
root
during the download.  I looked the file was in /tmp.  I then tried to move the 
file
out of /tmp using mv before I lost it and it didn't work again.  The file is 
lost
because I have to use email through windows and have to reboot because I can't 
figure
out how to use email.  It seems to me if I can't move a file from one directory 
to
another there must be something wrong.  I put:
mv communicator (I then hit tab) /usr
it seems to me, from what I read, I am doing it correctly but it doesn't work,  
this
is maddening.  The only thing I have been able to do by myself is install the 
root and
get my mouse to work.  After three weeks and with five books.
