(E-Mail Removed) I don't know whether there's a good reason that the executable at the end of that link is still available, and I'd like to make sure Microsoft is aware of the issue. I'd rather not see the link posted here, because others will try it and have a similar experience, I suspect. -- "buhliever" <(E-Mail Removed)> wrote in message news  912B437-CDC1-4AB5-88C4-(E-Mail Removed)...> Sorry for the late comeback. > Finally got it downloaded & installed. > The only thing I did differently was use the link you provided. > Oddly, it was almost identical to the link from MS that I originally used. > Yours ended with "/default.mspx" and mine had "/support.mspx".
