Patch Program
Click here
to run a program which "patches" the installed program of "Birds of
Tropical Asia 2.0" so that the erroneous sound recordings and photos are no
longer visible (up-to-date to November 2004).
It also solves the only program bug found so far (read about it here).
The patch program runs only if you have the CD-ROM already installed on your PC.
