This warning message is annoying, but it doesn't really affect anything
except Summary's ability to tell you the IP address of your machine. You
can still use a URL with your IP address, or domain name if you have
one, in it instead of "localhost" to access Summary, at least if you
know what your IP address/domain name is.

This problem is more serious. Summary is failing for some people when
writing reports to static HTML files. This bug will be fixed in the next
release, currently scheduled for sometime next week.

If you can live without the static HTML files, written to the Reports
folder, you can turn off "Write reports as HTML files (best left off)",
on the Options configuration page, to avoid this problem.

as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
