[Chameleon] installing chameleon

[Jeff McKenna]

Yes unzip both at the same root of your drive.

The common mistake is that people install MS4W, and then do not install 
the specific Chameleon MS4W package (also available on 
http://www.maptools.org/ms4w/index.phtml?page=downloads.html), they grab 
it from the Chameleon downloads page instead - that one is not 
configured for MS4W.
