The "lite" package should be available through:
http://simtel.net/product.php[id]80047
That link should open a page with a [download now] javascript button with links to three dozen mirror-sites, from which you can pick the one closest to you.
But, occasionally the host site (simtel) and its mirror linkages all become balky.
If you have trouble, just wait an hour or so and try again later.

Hello

Yes, I've tried that way too .... and as you said ... (sometimes) it does work ... or the download doesn't start.

I've d/l-ed the version 1.0.0 from emule.

The file is small ... why it's soooo difficult to get it ....????

How often you've tried the usual way ... till you get the file?

I think it has nothing to do with the file size.
The host just has some really bad times, & quite erratic.

When I downloaded at first, it took several attempts.
Then a few hours later there was no problem at all when I went back & repeated the downloads of both the Pro & the Lite versions as a test from different mirrors on the list.
