Thank you for this fantastic application.

Is it possible to install the QuotesDaddy.com online quote fetcher book addon manually, that is without having to run a setup.exe program?

Just unzip this into your Books directory:
http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/mpq/downloads/dyn_quotesdaddy.zip

Basically the quotesdaddy "addon" is just a small file.

After unpacking you should have MpsMedia/Books/dyn_quotesdaddy/dyn_quotesdaddy.txt

Restart MPQ and the quotesdaddy book should be in your list.

If you look at the quotesdaddy file you might get inspired to look around for other web pages that you could adapt it for.
