Installing Poll

I'm trying to install Poll Master v.1.0 from http://scripts.estudio.ca/index.htm . But I'm having trouble. The script runs a test to see if the non CGI directory is correct. I've entered the correct address and folder name (I have tried changing the folder name, changing the CHMOD...) But nothing helps. Here is how the script tries to confirm that the folder is in the correct place, it asks me if I can see an image, but no image is displayed, which means the directory is not good. Anyway, when I right click the image it's suppose to display, I see that it's looking for this address "http://localhost/pmNonCGI/icons/question.gif", which clearly isn't my domains address. So right now I think the script is the problem here. Anyone have any ideas, of what I might be doing wrong and haven't noticed?

There's presumably a configuration script that shows what default path is being looked for. Search for 'localhost'... If you can find that, you can probably manually configure things and do away with all that auto-install nonsense that I despise oh so dearly.

Yeah, there is a screen where the programm entered some of the links. It entered every link correctly, except for the non CGI link, where it didn't put anything. I put the link correctly, but it's still giving trouble. You talked about a manual installation, how should I go about that?

Well, instead of listening to what the installation software said, I clicked on Yes as if the image appeared, and the poll works fine. Maybe it's a glicht in their installation software.
