Hi Mary Ellen,

The URL for Web-Braille is
http://www.loc.gov/nls/braille
When the page loads, you should be on the "Enter Network Password" Dialog Box, 
which will read as follows on your BN:

Enter Network Password Dialog
Please type your username and password
Resource: braille
Username: (Type your UserName here and press ENTER)
Password: (Type your Password and press ENTER)
Save this password in your password list.  unchecked (Press SPACE to move to 
the next item)
OK Button (Press ENTER)

You should now be told to "Please Wait", and the Web-Braille page should load 
with the title "Web-Braille" (without the quotes).  If you're using the NLS 
site (the Web site mentioned above but without the /braille ending), you will 
be prompted to enter your password once you activate the link to download the 
first volume of the first book you are downloading in your current session, and 
the Dialog Box should read the same.  Once you have hit ENTER on the OK button, 
you will be told to "Please Wait", and the page which contains the book should 
download, the title of the actual Web page being something like 
"http://www.loc.gov/nls/braille/brblea2345v01.brf"; (without the quotes).

I believe the Web-Braille site is case sensitive, which could be your problem.  
Make sure you're capitalizing where necessary because this will make a 
difference.  Since you're using a QT, I assume you are not entering in any 
Braille grade, but if you are, try using Computer Braille.

HTH
