I did not have quite the same experience as Michel on my Win2K
machine, but I may have done something slightly different.
1. I uninstalled 1.2.5 using the uninstall menu item in the Start menu.
2. Then I deleted the C:\Program Files\Ifeffit folder that got left
behind once the uninstall was done.
3. Then I downloaded the 1.2.4 installer package from
http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/src/
4. Then I installed 1.2.4.
5. Then I ran athena (version 0.8.023 is what comes with ifeffit 1.2.4
-- not too out of date!) and it seemed to work ok. I did *not*
allow the updater to update beyond 1.2.4, which would (I presume)
return me to square one.
Of course, your athena and artemis configuration files and most
recently used files will be lost doing what I did. (Unless you back
them up first!)
