Adjustment made:

        http://pgfoundry.org/projects/pginstaller</ulink>. This release
        supports  NT-based Windows releases like NT4, Win2k, XP, Win2003.
        Older releases like Windows 95, 98, and ME are not supported because
        these operating systems do not have the infrastructure to
        support PostgreSQL.
