Hello all.

Trying to download the latest PE from the RevEd website, and although it IS working, it won't give me more then 12KB per second.

Yes, you read that correctly - 12 KILO-BYTES per second.
It is a 100MB download, so after about 1 hour, I have roughly half of it.

Perhaps they are doing something with their servers tonight or something, but does anyone have a DIRECT link to a download of PE6, perhaps on the cloud somewhere.

GOT IT!!!!

Thank you so much, Jim.

I have no idea what was going on there, but I tried it a 2nd time.....and still will only give me 12KB/s.

With your upload, it was done in a few seconds - average of about 5MB/s

Strange, as you report no speed issues......

Wondering if perhaps a web browser issue?
(I use Opera)

Every other site is fine, speed-wise, and even the RevEd website loads and you can browse around the site at a really fast speed.
But when I request the download.....

Probable a rat chewed through a cable somewhere and I use a different path.
I will delete my copy now.
