>&#13;	Bugzilla is not a package where you can just plop it in a directory,
	twiddle a few things, and you're off.  Installing Bugzilla assumes you
	know your variant of UNIX or Microsoft Windows well, are familiar with the
	command line, and are comfortable compiling and installing a plethora
	of third-party utilities.  To install Bugzilla on Win32 requires
	fair Perl proficiency, and if you use a webserver other than Apache you
	should be intimately familiar with the security mechanisms and CGI
	environment thereof.
