Hi --
The ACL2 sources are at
ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu:/pub/moore/acl2/v2-6/acl2.tar.gz. (Or, you can get
there by way of the ACL2 home page, at www.cs.utexas.edu/usres/moore/acl2/,
which points to www.cs.utexas.edu/usres/moore/acl2/v2-6/.)
One of us (J Moore) has recently built a more recent version of ACL2 on WIndows
2000 without incident, so perhaps the problem won't be easy to reproduce.
We expect to release a new version soon. A pre-release is at
ftp://ftp.cs.utexas.edu:/pub/moore/acl2/v2-7/acl2.tar.gz (we hope this will
become the actual release in a few days), with home page at
www.cs.utexas.edu/usres/moore/acl2/v2-7/.
Thanks --
-- Matt

Hi there.
Sorry about the late reply. Where do I find the source code for ACL2?
I won't be able to look at this problem until next week unfortunately.
Cheers
Mike Thomas.
