their download link points to:

http://www.simtel.com/product.download.mirrors.php?id=73866
Neither of the above 2 URLs worked for me. I did a search for
hh2003.zip and found it here:
http://custom.lab.unb.br/pub/simtel/win95/scrsave/.

I'm dl from there now, as we speak.

The Simtel redirects seem to be screwed up. I have found that I can
download from the mirror sites *if* I right click and open the link in a
new tab (with Javascript enabled) . . .

Jason posted a Proxomitron filter that also works . . .

It seems that it install Nav Helper with it ?
It is not a clean freeware ?

dunno, but someone else posted that it installed Nav Helper.

more info about Nav Helper here:

http://www.doxdesk.com/parasite/NavExcel.html

Evidently it can be removed easily:

<q> Go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel, choose the
'NavHelper' and click 'Remove'. Restart the computer </q>
