I don't know the versions, but I am using the unmodified virtual server
downloaded from the mb site.

I don't know if anyone else has tried, but I'm porting it to MySQL. A few
little bugs, but I think they can all be overcome. At the moment loading all
the data onto a mysql server for win xp. Becuase it's a perl script, it will
also work on linux machines (which i'll test later)

*fingers crossed*
