Hi,

Can you be more specific about the problem? If you're really unable to download anything
past 99% from both my server and Microsoft's then you may have a larger problem.

Hi,

We do not have a problem downloading anything else from other sites. We did
finally get the WLInstaller.EXE downloaded. But, when it tries to install it
is only successful for the Sign-in Assistant and Messagner; Mail gets to 99%
downloaded and stops.

Any suggestions?
