INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC INSTALLATION --------------------------------------- This section provides instructions for Frontier GlobalCenter installation and account setup. The Frontier GlobalCenter Setup Program starts by launching the Microsoft Internet Explorer Setup program. To install the Internet Explorer software, follow the prompts and instructions that appear on your screen. * In the Destination Folder window, click OK to install Internet Explorer in the default destination folder, or browse for the path to a different folder. Frontier GlobalCenter recommends that you install Internet Explorer in its default destination folder, if possible. * If Internet Explorer software is currently installed on your system, the Setup program prompts you to upgrade or reinstall components. When the Internet software has been installed and the Setup Program advises that it must restart your computer, click OK. (Do NOT manually restart your computer!) After your computer restarts, you must access the Frontier GlobalCenter online registration system. Follow these steps: 1. Locate and double-click the Internet Explorer icon on your desktop. If you do not already have the proper network components installed on your system, Windows will install them, then ask to reboot. Reboot, then double-click on the Internet Explorer icon on your desktop. 2. Enter the information that the registration system requests. 3. When the registration process is complete, your system configuration will have been updated with your Frontier GlobalCenter username, password, and local access phone number.
