No matter how hard I try I have been unable to download RC 1. The download
manager is useless----907 bytes is the "full" download. 700+/- byles is the
full download without the download manager. Any suggestions?????

Same here. If you look closely the 907 byte download is a html file
containing the cosy message

Since I used the link in my email I find this rather annoying.

I get exactly the same, whether I use the downloader or not.

Anyone know when this will be fixed?
