It looks to me like the zip did not download correctly. I would recommend using a download manager to ensure that you get the all file.

Cheers

Yeah, I think pip is right, be sure to make sure your not picking up a cached version of the file also. If the file looks likes its downloading waaaaaaaaay too fast, then you need to delete your browser cache and try again. If you need any more help don't hesitate to let us know. :D

What?

Firefox... good man! (They have just recently updated so these are instructions are for the latest version)

Ok, start Firefox... then click Tools->Options, then Privacy along the top, then Cache underneath that... then finnally "Clear Cache Now". If the options menu looks totally different chances are you don't have the latest build. I would recommend updating your FireFox (you can't get a version with the google toolbar which blocks popups and includes a handy google search bar).

FireFox with Google Toolbar

Hope this helps!

You're gonna hate me lol

Sorry about that, fixed the link now... should work

I don't mind pop-ups

since I've got a pop-up-blocker of my own that I run anyways.

I hate the pop-up-blocker that runs through your browser, because every time you have a pop-up the browser screen gets smaller by about 2 inches, even though 2 inches isn't all that large its still bad when you've got a small screen.

Kyle, you dont mind popups?

Okay, go to www.thebardstale.com, and repeatedly scroll over the fat man, wearing plate, with a big sword, and leaning on one elbow.

That should teach you some major respect for popups. Of course, it only works if you truly have no popup blockers working.

Wow Lol

hey sum1won, if you read the post 2 posts ago, you would have understood that I hate the pop-up blocker than runs through IE as a standard.

I don't like pop-ups so I use a free pop-up blocker. that runs outside of the browser.

I am currently using firefox 1.5
