Our web guru, Jen Oxelson, tracked this one down...

Downloads have been working when one goes to the Downloads page (after
logging in, of course), but they were not working when one tried the
download from my McIDAS pages (the reason is rather complicated so I
will not delve into it here).  The problem has been corrected, so
please try your download(s) again.

I apologize for the problems!

Cheers,

Tom
