I'm having the same problem. Mirror or an another link would be very useful.

I made a similar suggestion a couple days ago , except involving those who pre-ordered the MC. Seemed to me that would allow the downloadable files to be posted sooner than the original 'when the disks ship' date; and maybe stagger the download traffic a bit. http://www.matrixgames.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=004976 Looks now like this great game has gotten so popular the download blues were unaviodable; even with the superhuman effort of the SPWAW staff. Any word on the possibility of using file sharing programs like Gnutella to allow those who already got v5.0 to let others download it from them?

One small tip for Getright users - Go to Getright Configuration - Section Connections. The retry is set to 60 retries - so if you have the PC on for hours it will still only try like one hour to download it. Set something high :) murx
