NOTE: If you are not connected to the Internet before you open PM 2011, you will receive a message similar to the one below

If you choose to ignore that message - by clicking on 'OK' - you will find that, when you attempt to open projects or images which are installed on your hard drive, you will receive java error messages. And, those java error messages will prevent PM 2011 from running correctly.
