Hello,

I use to follow your blog since the beginning, I'm happy to see you
"supporting" FreeBSD.

In September had to play with Office 2k and I followed your linux
related instruction to run it under FreeBSD (I note your FreeBSD related
article is identical to the linux one).  But, I never were able to run
Excel, this one just hangs once the main page is displayed (Word runs
fine).  I wonder if you never met this issue.

Here's what I got in the terminal:
err:iphlpapi:getRouteTable Received unsupported sockaddr family 0x12
err:iphlpapi:getRouteTable Unexpected address type 0x10
err:iphlpapi:getRouteTable Unexpected address type 0x20
