I am.... could you help me resolve access to the software? The problem according to our Web engineer, Scott, was: "We had the 'Desert Research Institute' listed as a research facility instead of a degree granting college or university. I've fixed the discrepancy and Dr. Wetzel should have no further issues with downloading software." Since our license to distribute McIDAS is limited to research and educational institutions (worldwide!), we implemented a filter that only allows immediate access to .edus. As you found out, we force other folks to send us an email so we can judge whether or not they should be allowed access to our distribution. I am sorry for the hassle, but we have not been able to figure out anything easier to do. So, you should not have a problem grabbing the distribution now. Please let me know if you do continue to have problems. Gone skiing yet? Tom
