Hm. I will try to do something about that ... - I just don't want to 
change all the dates every time I upload a new version.

Could you please try the tests below?

Try the command file emacs.cmd that is written at the installation to 
the EmacsW32 subdirectory. To open a file you can do

    emacs.cmd filename.txt

Try also the Send To shortcut in Windows Explorer. There should be an 
Emacs entry now.

Try the above two tests first with Emacs not started and then with Emacs 
already started. Start Emacs from the Quick Launch icon then.

This means there was a timeout when gnuclient waited for gnuserv. The 
most likely reason is that it took long time to start Emacs. Do you have 
a gnuserv process in Emacs? Inside Emacs do

    M-x list-processes

The output should look something like (possibly scrambled a bit by mail):

    Proc                                Status   
Buffer                              Command
    ----                                ------   
------                              -------
    server                              run      
(none)                              c:/Program 
Files/Emacs/EmacsW32/bin/gnuserv.exe

The setup should be fine then if you do not have something else in your 
setup that clashes with gnuserv. You could of course try renaming .emacs 
temporarily and restart Emacs to test that.
