[Spread-users] getting spread to run with C#

[Daniel Rall]

Hi Prashanth.  I'm not too familiar with C#, but in Java an error like this 
might indicate the need to define some bytecode access control rules in a policy 
file.  Specifically, the stack frame referencing 
System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine leads me to believe this.  A quick 
Google search yields the following possibly relvant info:

"This happens because C# will not load an assembly on a network drive. Just move 
your RSSReader.exe executable onto a local driveand try again."
