Section A (First Time Elluminate Live Access):

While you may install the eLive client on your machine the first time you attend a scheduled session, it is best to install in advance. Because the 
client may take a few minutes to download and properly configure, installing the client and ensuring it is working can save you valuable time later
when you need to join the actual eLive session. 

To install the eLive client software please open the following URL in your web browser: http://www.elluminate.com/support/softwaredownload.jsp
You will be taken to Elluminate Java Web Start installation page:
