Note! PonyProg2000 is still a BETA release. Try it and report me the results. I need feedback with all new devices (ATmega32, ATmega8515, ATmega8535..)
To try a localized version you need to install the english setup version and then overwrite the file PonyProg2000.exe with the executable of your language (downloaded separately).

 
Install instructions

Since the version 1.14 PonyProg is released with a Setup program. Decompress the file .zip with Winzip, then run setup.exe and follow instructions.

I packed the setup.exe file into a .zip because someone find problems to downlaod a .exe file.

If you already have an older PonyProg installed, you need to uninstall the old version first, then install the new version.
