   If you are getting errors or the Wikifortio server appears down - you can post your issues - here where patterns (if any) of problems, browsers, OS, can be determined - and hopefully fixed.

   Useful to know tell us which version of windows and internet browser you have tried, also very useful (though not essential) the region/country you live in (the site might be inaccessible for example to people in Australia), also important the exact error messages you see.

   Also check the main & mirror downloads for both the Giveaway and Game.Giveaway sites.

   so:
   - Which download isn't working?
   - Windows and Internet Browser Version you are using.
   - Location (ie. Country)
   - The error message you are getting.
   - Check both main and mirror Wikifortio download sites.

   For "advanced users":
   - empty your browser cache and retry.
   - If you are running a firewall - check logs for blocks/errors while connecting.
   - can you ping both of the wikifortio download servers successfully?

   First download goes to wikifortio and d/l file.ZIP from w4.wikifortio.com. This file is about 50 kb and always results in a "folder invalid or corrupt" error AND contents window says "cannot contact".

   Second d/l of file.ZIP from w4.wikifortio.com results in succesful d/l, extraction of files, and installation of program.

   Should first d/l be looking for the same file on wikifortio as the second one? Is this causing the error? How to fix?

   Ref my previous post.

   I am using "MetaProducts Download Express" with IE7.

   I can cancell the first download but still get the Wikifortio page without contents.

   The subsequent program d/l works OK.

   The new Wikisend interface is a great improvement over the original.

   No longer have a "first" download which fails and eliminated the Contents problem since there is no Contents window.
