Please see: Installation instructions

I just upgraded to Mathematica 8. Which version of mathStatica do I need?
You need mathStatica 2.5 which provides perfect compatibility with Mathematica 8.
[ See: mathStatica compatibility table ]

Can I install a second copy of mathStatica on my portable / home computer?
Yes — if you have purchased a single-user license, we will support your use of mathStatica on both your work machine and also on your home/notebook computer that also has Mathematica installed on it (for the same user).
If, for some reason, your work and home machines have different Mathematica license numbers, please contact register@mathStatica.com with full details of both your Mathematica licenses so that we can issue you with an appropriate password.

Can I install mathStatica in a Network environment?
- Single-user License
Yes. If you have purchased a single-user license of mathStatica, even though you are running a Network/site license of Mathematica, we can fully support your use as a single user by issuing you with a MachineID password. This will enable mathStatica to work perfectly on your computer, without having to purchase a multi-user license. This is very common at universities which have site licenses for Mathematica.
- Multi-user enviroment
Yes. If you running a site or Network copy of Mathematica, and you are seeking a multi-machine mathStatica multi-user license to match same, we can support you with a mathStatica Network License.

What happened to mathStatica’s start-up sound? I like sooo want it back!
There are some quirky issues with Mathematica 8 and Java and EmitSound[ ] on the Mac, so we decided it was best to avoid these issues and just default it to off. If you want it back, and if you are using mathStatica 2.5, go to your install directory, which is typically your ...
$UserBaseDirectory / Applications folder
... and there you will find the file:
mathStatica.m
You should probably make a copy for yourself before making changes.
Simply open this file in Mathematica ... it is very short ... and if you are feeling adventurous, you can edit back in the very first command:
EmitSound[ blah blah blah]
... and save the file. Then ... mathStatica will start-up with a bang.
