[John Corliss]

Probably a temporary situation, but anybody else getting their
connection refused when trying to download OpenOffice.org 2.0 RC1?

errr......... wrong (one too many sub-domain levels, lol)

http://download.services.openoffice.org/2.0.0rc/index.html

SHOULD be

Thanks for replying Adam, but I don't have Bittorrent installed. Steven
Burn caught the problem as the link being wrong.

Steven,
Wow! Good catch! And many thanks. This morning I was burning backups
of my freeware archives on my new DVD burner and wanted the most recent
version of OO.o. Good to know that they're closer to the final.

Let me get this straight. You can buy a DVD burner but you don't have
enough HD space for a Bit Torrent client?

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL

What a tool you are.

Steven Burn gave the correct link which openoffice.org hasn't fixed yet
for some wierd reason.....
http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.0rc/index.html

Thanks to Steven

He didn't say that. Re-read.

Then let him correct me, KeithS, for that is the way I read it. Otherwise,
why ion the world would Mr. Subterranean Freeware not have a Bit Torrent
client?

Then you're making an unwarranted assumption.


Otherwise,

client?

Maybe he doesn't want it. There are plenty of programs and applications,
both freeware and payware, which I don't have on my HD because I don't
want them, not because I 'don't have enough HD space'. Possibly John C
feels the same, but I wouldn't state that as a fact, only as a possibility.
Meanwhile, I suggest you get off his case and stop trying to be
antagonistic toward him. If he annoys you, ignore him, killfile him,
whatever. He won't seek you out to renew your virtual aquaintance.

No, just butt out.

You are correct, Keith.

Man, is that ever the truth. 80)>
