Re: Linux??
I have only seen this when IE doesnt know what the file size is and makes an estimate, or the reported file is larger than what was reported (Happened when I downloaded the Mandriva 3 CD set)

Re: Linux??
Do you guys see any room for a Linux or Mac forum around D-A-L? I know I couldn't post in them as I have no experience of either but if it would benefit the site we could pull some resources together. Anyway was just a thought when I read this.

Re: Linux??
I know BD, Myself and Windows Licker are all on or trying Linux. It might be a good trial.
I have personally install RHEL, RH 7.3 as well as Mandriva 10.x and FC3 (Still have FC3 running as well as RHEL)

Re: Linux??
I was thinking we could change the "Windows Operating Systems" category to just "Operating Systems" and add Linux and MAC OS
