No one's sent in any reports about testing the dialog in Win2k, NT etc. I agree
with the direct link from the webpage. I don't understand why you don't already
have it. IMO, the connection dialogue is great. It's better than the gtk one,
because it works. 

The windows client needs work on only one area, the city screen. I can't say
anything else about the windows client bothers me except the missing features.
