Example won't work

Once I actually tried the examples, the first one I am trying doesn't work. Since I bought this book purely for the step by step examples, this pretty much makes it suspect as to having any value.

When I typed in the example lines as described on page 318 I get an error (Parser Error Message: Unrecognized configuration section 'Forms') when I try to run it. Since it is only two lines of text, and I have typed them in multiple times, I am at a loss. I went to the website to download the example files, thinking at least that should work, but it was it was zipped. So, I went to pkware.com and tried to download the viewer, but something was wrong with their link, and when I would get to the last page, it would say, "File not found." instead of downloading. Almost every other books examples are not zipped, I suppose someone thought they were being cute by zipping it, but I don't appreciate that either, since pkware is apparently having problems.

Anyway, I did have this book rated as a 3, but now that the first time I actually try an example and it doesn't work, I am changing my rating. If I try another one and it doesn't work either, then I will log back and lower it still further.
