I attempted to install V. 12.5 today (Mac OS 10.4.7, G4) and all went well until an automatic attempt was made by the installer to connect to the internet. (This is a machine that has a slow dialup connection which is rarely turned on). Failure to connect to the NNA website (something about a lack of "socket") caused the install to overwrite VW V 12.1 but NOT restore it after the failing to connect to the internet. Thus, I am spending my morning reinstalling VW 12.00, then downloading and installing 12.1. Overwriting was explained in the Read Me but no there was no suggestion that an internet connection was essential or that the original VW was at risk.
