Hi Lizette, Thanks for the info. I already use Mozilla, will check out the addin. So along with the DVDs, the softcopy downloads of the DVD images (or collections) are no longer available? Bummer...

I forget what version of z/OS they did that. z/OS V1.13 may be the last - but I am not sure. I would recommend getting MOZILLA browser and install the addin - DOWNTHEMALL. It is very fast to down load anything from the web. I use it to download all of the IBM Manuals I want. I think I downloaded 678 PDFs from IBM in about 10 mins maybe 20 mins.
