You should seriously consider tranquilizers. Really. In case you didnt notice, theres about 30 or 40 people posting in various parts of the BBS about various problems they have or gripes they have with the new setup. You posted, nobody saw it. They will, sometimes it takes longer than others. So if you want to move things along, email Skuzzy directly. The techsupport email addy IS listed several places. I dont blame them for not publishing a phone number. Otherwise they'd have half-cocked belligerent flyboys calling them all day.
Now, as to your problem. Depending on your firewall, it could be a culprit. You didnt say if you checked that or not like the previous poster suggested. Even though coincidence is a ***** sometimes, did you check your internet connection to make sure your throughput is good? Given the fact that you are only running a P3, if your connection slowed down alot it might take awhile to process the download. Hell, I'm running a 2 Ghz Athlon and the first part of the download hangs for awhile. Did you walk away for awhile and leave it to see if it really is locked up? I've found more than once downloading big files that some parts go slower than others. The internet has been crazy the last couple of days as well with it being election time. Last but not least, did you read that they were having server problems earlier? Dont know what server the download is on, but its possible you were trying to download when their server was experiencing problems. Might want to check that.
These are just basic suggestions I can think of off the top of my head. Maybe we're in luck and one of them helps you. If not, and no one else responds, try email. But seriously, going off on the people you are asking for help, not a good idea. Good luck.
