This is because you are looking at the Open Innovations 'MRTG Bundle' version 2.1.0.  \
This Bundle install for Windows helpfully contains everything you need, but at a \
rather old version of the software.  You can subsequently upgrade MRTG to 2.16, \
RRdtool to 1.3.x and Routers2 to 2.19 if you choose.

The README is actually slightly out of date as the CD originally held v2.9.27 of MRTG \
but this was later upgraded to 2.16.2

You can get 95th Percentiles with Routers2, or by using various other 3rd Party \
add-ins to MRTG.  On the whole, you would be better advised ot upgrade to the latest \
versions of MRTG, RRDtool and Routers2 if you are comfortable with doing so - the \
MRTG Bundle 2.1.0 is very out of date (Open Innovations have indicated that a new \
bundle version will possibly be created with the latest versions some time in the \
future)

Hope this helps, and (on behalf of everyone) thankyou for your appreciation

Steve
