Re: 2.6 Windows installer "Remove previous version" messages

Well, on Windows you can only have one version of AbiWord (installed to
the default location) installed at a time, and so your AbiWord uninstall
link (which mistakenly still says 2.4) is actually to uninstall 2.6.
Please file a bug at http://bugzilla.abisource.com/ If it really
bothers you, you can uninstall then re-install, which should fix it, but
as long as you see 2.6.0 in the Help -> About menu, you're using 2.6
