:oops: Stupid question of the day. Trying to download the install file. Clicking the link on the download side drops the code into a new IE file. I've tried "save target as", but this load a short piece of the bat file, then fails. Is there a nice simple FTP site I can pull this down from, or suggestions on how to download the bin file properly?

DavidBulman, where are you trying to download from?

Try this link: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7130&release_id=184028

If you click on one of the links on that page, you will get a download page, with several mirrors. They are all HTTP servers, but at least some of them should work. If not, try with a different client (Mozilla for example).

We don't have an FTP site; our hosting is provided by SourceForge.

Hi, its SourceForge I'm having the prob with. I click on the appropriate mirror (have tried a number) and have the same problem. The link opens up a new IE window which it dumps the file into, rather than letting me save the file.

Then something is off-kilter in IE. You should really try out Mozilla or Firebird.
