Hi,

KillJack is a program to kill jack, it's not jack. It's more the opposite
of jack actually. Also, there is no installer, just run the program, or
drag it over to "Applications" first.

If you want to install jack, you'll find it inside this package:
http://users.notam02.no/~kjetism/radium/demos/macosx/radium_64bit_osx-6.3.82-demo.zip
There is an installer for jack there.

Filipe: Would it be possible to put back the download links to jack for
windows and jack on the jack page? Please. The old packages does still work.
