I haven't tried to download it myself, yet (I'm on the wrong side of a slow link <plug>(though it's faster since I got my new ZyXEL yesterday)</plug>), so maybe this is explained for me, but does netscape publish checksums for their US binaries?
This isn't just an issue of making sure your copy wasn't munged in transit; without checksums, what's stopping netscape from embedding the info you provide in the binary before shipping it to you, so that if it shows up on hacktic, they know who did it?
Could various people with various architectures post MD5 or SHA1 hashes of the files they downloaded?
I'm sorry, but I don't have time to run the checksums right now. Feel free to compare checksums of downloaded files. You won't find any secret tagging. Note also that the download is via SSL. --Jeff -- Jeff Weinstein - Electronic Munitions Specialist Netscape Communication Corporation jsw@netscape.com - http://home.netscape.com/people/jsw Any opinions expressed above are mine.
