Re: thousand of books to download

In numerous visits since the original message was posted, I have had no
problems, whether on linux/mozilla or winxp/iexplore. However, the
website does limit you to 2 open connections, and gives the 'login
request denied' error if a third is attempted; also, a few of the files
are screwed up, and give some generic directory error. The vast
majority are good quality scans, and download speed is good.
