Locate and open the FlashStats2005.msi file. Follow the prompts to install FlashStats.
FlashStats includes a utility called BitKinex (from Barad-Dur, LLC) which it uses to download the web site log files from your web server to your local computer. The FlashStats installation program will also install BitKinex at the end of the normal FlashStats procedure.
If you have installed FlashStats but it has stopped working for some reason, you may want to repair your installation. Simply re-open the FlashStats2005.msi file and you will get the option to repair or remove the installation.
Before using the Control Panel to remove FlashStats, you should do the following within FlashStats:
Open the Web site menu and choose Delete.... Select each web site and click Delete..., then use the next window to select which data files to delete.
Open the Tools menu and choose Unzipped Logs.... You can select all of the local unzipped log files and delete them.
To remove the FlashStats program from your system, open Control Panel and choose Add or Remove Programs. Scroll down the list of installed programs and choose Maximized Software FlashStats 2005 and click Remove, then follow the prompts.
Please note that after removing FlashStats you may still have the following folders and data on your system, especially if you did not follow the first two steps above.
