If I try to download the file with Internet Explorer (right-click & select save target as), it gets saved as a blank .txt file. Obviously using this file (after removing the .txt extension) when installing Mandrake doesn't work. If I click on the file link itself, it opens a blank web page. On viewing the page's source I get the following (saving and using this file when installing also doesn't work): If I download the Serial file using GetRight, the contents when viewed in Notepad is as follows: http://www.sofcom.com.au/banner_random.js";> http://ad.au.doubleclick.net/adj/www.planetmirror.sofcom.com.au/tile2;a br=!ie;sz=120x60;ord=' + ord + '"> http://ad.au.doubleclick.net/jump/www.planetmirror.sofcom.com.au/tile2 ;abr=!ie;sz=120x60;ord=67903291373337260?">http://ad.au.doubleclick.net/ad/www.planetmirror.sofcom.com.au/tile2;ab r=!ie;sz=120x60;ord=67903291373337260?" border=0 height="60" width="120"> Oh sh_ _! I just copied and pasted that from Notepad but it doesn't look anything like that in Notepad! I've included the Serial file as an attachment. Perhaps someone might know what the problem is. Or better still, maybe someone would be kind enough to email the file to me? I'm looking to buy the CDs from someone in NZ if possible because it doesn't look like I'll get Mandrake installed from the files I downloaded. But in the meantime... Cheers Skinky PS.
