It works fine for me from the three Australian mirrors. *however* they
seem to be unfriendly to my firewall - I can't get them with firefox
from inside of it. But I can get it from the outside.
Try the Swedish mirror, that one works from both sides of my fw.

They're all ftp links... The web is used only to select which mirror to
use.
No torrents, that's correct - we only provide those for release versions
that get a lot moer downloads.

My apologies, I proably overreacted a bit. In a half-hearted defent I'll
say that I did read *your* post about the sanme way - if you re-read it,
you'll probably see why. And I still stand by that the reason for it not
being responded to may be a lack of information. That said, yeah, there
are better ways to say that.
