Kirk -
I'm one of them - which set of files are you using (WGA or WGD?) It's
going to take me a few days to dig up stuff from my archives, but that's
one that definitely needs fixing

Is the person who wrote the Wargods db here? There is a problem when I
am making a roster for Sebeki. It keeps telling me I have an Anubi
character in my roster whenever I add a Beloved of Sebek.

There's a file called "install.log" in the directory that you installed AB
into; it lists the locations of each file, and the registry keys that it
adds. The installer copies vcl50.bpl in your WINDOWS/SYSTEM/ directory,
but AFAIK, that's the only non-local file that AB requires. However, if
you copy it into the same directory as the AB executable (on a CD, say),
I'm guessing that it'll still work.
As for the registry keys, try creating an ASCII file with a .reg
extension. If you know what you're doing, it shouldn't be too hard to copy
the keys and values over from install.log. If you don't, then don't even
think about it; the system registry can be a delicate thing. Anyway, once
you've written the .reg file, you just have to double-click on it to update
the registry on whichever computer you're on.
