Dave,
Try right clicking on the link, and then save link as- then you'll get a 
window with the choice of where to save your package.

The problem is that it's not the download link that's not working - it's 
the link that takes you to the package description.  I.E., the one ending 
with a .html in the file/link name.  I'm not sure how downloadable that 
will be... :-)

Two options... www.rpmfind.net is a different server from rpmfind.net...
If that doesn't help pbone.net... many of the same functions different
system altogether.

Weird that they're different.  But it works. :-)  Thanks.  I'll check out 
pbone.net as well.
