<P>.Hi Cristopher !</P>
<P>My name is Alvaro Salas and I am from Bogotá (Colombia). I am a mathematician and I studied at the Ex-Soviet Union (Kishinev State University, Republic of Moldavia) from 1982 to 1988. I am 39 years old. </P>
<P>I received your message about latex2html installation on Windows ME. I don´t use Windows ME. Instead, I use Linux Red Hat 7.3, Windows 98 (second Edition) and Windows XP. I installed latex2html on all these plataforms. It runs very well. The equations it generates are transparent gifs without any gray background and without any boxes around them. Believe me, I spent about six months trying to install latex2html on windows. If you consider I may help you then write me again.</P>
<P>Sincerely,</P>
