XP wants to save show 190 as HTML Doc

Post by jaz » Thu May 03, 2007 8:37 am

I tried to download show 190 mp3 on my work computer with no luck. XP insisted on saving it as a HTML Document. This happens from time to time with the TLLTS mp3 files. Downloaded Ogg ok on a memery stick.

Just try again. I usually get this the first time. Not sure what the problem is, but the work-around is pretty easy.

Try it a second time. It works for me. Could be a bad mirror. The truth is we secretly want you to only use ogg. Just kidding. ;)

Tried it three times then gave up. No big deal though the Ogg plays on my Nokia & Laptop so I will not miss the show. I have also found that if it doesn't work the first time it will probably work the 2nd. My work XP computer has a mind of it's own, if it wasn't for the company IT Gestapo...
