Inf File

1. Corrected driver version date

2. Add a registry key "disableTurboG" and set it to 0 on regedit. (fix issue: cannot scan Turbo mode AP with WAG511 v1 Turbo G function)

InstallShield

1. Remove few registry keys remained after uninstallation and libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll in directory "c:windowssystem32oobehtmlomevegbin" for Netgear's requirement

2. When AUTORUN program is executed under user mode on WinXP or Win2k, a message is displayed to inform user installation requires administrator privileges. Then the program will not launch installShield setup.exe to avoid an error message "The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be launched. Class not registered"
