Thank you. I only need to also get the Complete Spell Sheets PDF file.

having trouble uploading it . . . never mind, it showed up any way.

Thank you very much for your help and your time. All is OK now. I am still investigating about why I can't download files from this site in the regular way and without your help. I will let you know when I find. As far as now, it seems to be related to how the vBulletin forum engine works.

Are you on a computer? or are you on a phone?

At home or at work?

Do you have you security setting on a high level?

Are you on a proxy server?

Ask an admin after you get these questions answered, that is what I now recommend.

I am at work on a Linux computer and using Firefox 38. This is a small business structure and there is no proxy in the way. If of any importance, I am located in France.

I do not know. Sorry. Maybe [MENTION=52905]darjr[/MENTION] has some advice . . . . . he is the local guru. adding @ in front of someone's name will cause a mention and get their attention.

 

[darjr]

I don't understand. What is at issue?

 

[Scott DeWar]

He is having trouble downloading some stuff. It is detailed on post 156

Post 165 has some stuff that I thought might have an effect on download

Some news. Our Linux expert told me that it might be caused by a firefox privacy option he forced on our network. This is network.http.sendRefererHeader which is locally set to "0" (no referrer sent - maximum privacy) for websurfing privacy concerns while the Mozilla default value is "2" (always send the referrer - no privacy). I tried to set it to "1" and now I can download How this setting can actually break only (this) one site ?
