As I re-read this now, I see that I was not clear in my question.  The
bbwin.cfg file is trying to load an agent called memory.exe, which
does not appear to exist on my system.

- Is this agent call an error?
- Is my config icorrect?
- Is the memory.exe suppose to be included with bbwin_0.9.msi, but
somehow not included in my download?
- What is the purpose of memory.exe?
- Do I need it?
- Where can I get it?

Johann...thanks for the pointer for NOT loading externals.
