... says the setup program, which is funny because Im using a simple ISDN connection 
from an NT box which worked well enough to get me that far. I tried "Direct 
Connection" and "IE5 settings" but there is no proxy. I also tried stopping the 
firewall. Is the an explanation, solution or workaround, like just downloading the 
whole thing by hand or telling setup.exe on the command line which mirror to use?

A possible explanation is that I just got called a spambot for trying to read the 
manual, which I didnt take personally, at least, not to  the extent of mentioning 
words my mother wouldn't, but consoled myself with the explanation that IE could look 
like a spambot, especially after I'd switched off the friewall.

Thanks in advance for any help, especially if you also CC it to adrian at 
stone-age-software dot com.
