Hi i used win xp. with a internet download manager. That has worked grate upto now,in windows xp. the last 2 times i used Redhat4 ent. with konqueror and kget.these have worked without a flaw before,but it just will not work now. I think i will hold off for a while till the new wares off maybe the net has to much pressure on it at this point. Thanks for your help tho! Jerry __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
