what browser are/were you using? I had the exact same problem AS LONG AS I was using FireFox. when I used Microsoft Internet Explorer, I had no problem. (btw, I had all sorts of similar problems yesterday , looping requests for userids/pw-s, trying to get into IbmLink; problem resolved itself only when I quit using Firefox .....

Piece of cake - just go to the web site[1] and select it. Surprise! It turns out that I have to have an IBM user id, and the page includes a link for registering. So all I have to do is to register and use the new userid and password to sign in. Surprise! It turns out that when I sign in and attempt to download PoOps, they give me a different prompt for userid and password. Has anybody succeeded in downloading the current PoOps, and what is the secret? Thanks. [1] http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg2b9de5f05a9d57819852571c500428f9a -- Shmuel (Seymour J.)
