So hope am now clean. Downloaded the file but it is 10.358 not 10.606
any idea what next ? Feel like I am a complete computer numpty as can't resolve what seems to be a really simple issue.
Umm... just deleting the files isn't uninstalling. There's probably lots of stuff left over in the registry. However, give it a go. If it offers to repair or remove, get it to remove!

And then try installing again.

I download the file on a Mac. Perhaps that affected the file size. I'll check on a windows machine.

Nope, on my Windows XP machine, the file size is still 10,606,592.

When I run the installer software I get the following screens first:
  • Welcome to Mobipocket Creator 4.2
  • End User License Agreement
  • Creator Edition Selection (Home or Publisher)
  • Select Installation Folder

I don't know where your installation differs, but I'd try uninstalling (if given the option) and then reinstalling, making sure I was using the installer downloaded from the link I gave.

Are you sure you're not using an old copy of the installer that you already had?
