!MESSAGE Unable to find feature.xml in directory: E:\eclipse\features\net.sourceforge.metrics_1.3.8.20100730-001.jar.

Just a bit of missed info. This is running on Windows XP SP3 with 4GB Ram and all the plugins have been installed from their downloadable versions or offline update sites as I have problems with Eclipse and the proxy servers here so cannot update from update sites directly.
Metrics2 was installed from the downloadable version on the files page.
