I've seen this before... it sounds like they're using the same update system that id used waay back when for Doom (only this is the win32 one obviously - sorry about the strange link, I can't for the life of me remember what the system is called). It's not that awful english at all, it's actually perfectly correct - ladies and gents, if you've been using the unofficial updates since buying Poser 4 then it's your own fault for not heeding the warnings - official updates like this 4.02 updater will always look for the official 4.00 Poser 4 EXE - if you remember the beta updates were never officially sanctioned by MetaCreations. Use Winzip, Winace or something to extract the original Poser.EXE from the huge .CAB on your poser CD (making a copy of the current one just in case), and try the updater again. If it says similar things about other files then backup and overwrite them in the same manner.
