How to use section is right after release notes.

Release notes:
==============
It has been reported that Fuse, mainly MacFUSE is no longer
working correctly on newer versions of OSX. I have limited access
and only to 10.8.2 and have verified it to be the case.

If you see this type of message when you attempt to use Dropfuse -

<snip>
/Library/Filesystems/fusefs.fs/Support/fusefs.kext failed to load -
(libkern/kext) link error; check the system/kernel logs for errors or try kextutil(8).
the MacFUSE file system is not available (71)
</snip>

even though MacFUSE is installed, please follow these steps:
Download a successor library called OSXFuse
from this SourceForge page http://sourceforge.net/projects/osxfuse/?source=dlp

Install it and check the options to install the MacFUSE compatibility layer.
Installing OSXFUSE with this option will remove the old and not working
MacFUSE library if you happen to have it installed.

How to use:
===========
1). Install: Fuse
2). Get a link to a DropBox linked folder
3). Extract the contents of this software and navigate to the software
