This is a strange problem - I have checked my site and from here I can download Jave without any problems (in fact about 1,300 people have succeeded downloading it - don't know how many failed...). But I have uploaded Jave and the runtime environment (for all windows platforms) to a mirror location where maybe it works better. Jave 1.1a (570kB): http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~ukgh/jave/jave11a.zip FIGlet fonts package for Jave (382kB): http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~ukgh/jave/figletfonts1.zip Java Runtime environment 1.3 for windows (5.1MB): http://www.uni-karlsruhe.de/~ukgh/jave/j2re-1_3_1-win.exe (I will remove this one very soon for I don't know if Sun likes me to put it online somewhere else...) Please try to download it from there. If it does not work send me a quick note and I will post the files as email-attachments. Regards, Markus PS: To those who are waiting for bugfixes/upgrades: I am working on it but at the moment I am also very busy learning for a test, so it will take some weeks until the next release. _____________________ / .-------------------. \ ||\ ______ / || ,-------. // `.
