There is a Thread here which listed both downloads for the Test and Live - but I'm currently at work where forum loading speed is a major issue - If you or someone else coes not find the thread I'll try to find it later today when I get home.

I found a post that has the downloads for both PC and MAC for the "test" server, but was unable to find them for open.

The post with the test downloads is in our testers forum "The Helm"
(joining "The Helm" forum group to view may be required, see UserCP, "Group Memberships").

What happens when you try to access the page, what shows on the screen?
Have you tried another browser?

i tried firefox aswell, but when you access the page on 'any' powerpc you have to upgrade your flash player (and you need the newest one, only for intel!!!)...

now you see my issue... i (+ all powerpc users) need a third party download site, any ideas...?

Is the power PC a work only PC? or is it owned by you?

A lot of problems with running dell.Gateway, E-machines etc.. is that when people restore or boot the operating system they also restore all the **** that comes from the retailer as well.

I use a Older Dell XPS 600 sometimes and the first thing I did when it was one day old was to wipe the hard drive clean after running it for 30 minutes to verify everything was ok.

I completely run XP PRO without and dell **** installed other then the motherboard and Network drivers.

if you do like wise probably 99% of all the reason you hate your power PC will disappear POOF.

places like dell gateway etc update their drivers few and far between. My dell has dual 7800 GTX video cards made by dell but do I use dell Drivers???? Heck no I use Current Nvidia drivers as dell does not make video cards nor do they make motherboards all they do is make CASES and fit other products inside.

I researched my dell XPS 600 and found the board and video cards to be made by MSI

if you restore your PC do not install any intel applications only install the drivers themselves and then only if you have not found any drivers more suitable.

So you have upgraded your Flash player to version 10? The latest version of Flash Player should work on PowerPC G3's and up.
