Richard,

The CLASSPATH is set in the curn.bat file. However, it looks to me like a
simple .bat file quoting issue--one I didn't hit because (a) I typically run
curn on Linux, and (b) when I install curn for testing on Windows, I don't
typically install it under C:\Program Files. I'm betting the space in the
"Program Files" folder name is screwing up the invocation of the Java
executable; it needs to be quoted in the .bat file. (That's my fault.)

Try that. If it fixes the problem, please let me know. (And, of course, if it
doesn't fix the problem, please let me know, too.)

You didn't mention the version of curn that you're using; I'm assuming it's 3.0.

Regards,
