[SLE] Problems downloading with Netscape.
Hi Folks I am having problems with downloads using Netscape. When I click on a download link...no download window appears, but I still get a progress report at the bottom of the current page. When completed I get a warning like this: gunzip: /tempMO39DF.tgz not in gzip format. and I have no downloaded file. This only happens with some sites ....but always with Sourceforge. I also got the same thing with an attempt to downloaded the latest version of Balsa, from their home site. I was running Netscape 4.75 from Netscape and then tried the SuSE rpm There is no difference. I removed all traces of Netscape at each attempt. I have only had this problem over the lat day or so....and the programs download OK using Netscape under Windows. Any suggestions anyone? -- Brian Galbraith [ Sylpheed 0.4.1 ]| GnuPG 1.0.3 | SuSE Linux 7.0 ] Encrypted Mail Preferred http://seattle.keyserver.net:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x63EBA765 -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq

I sometimes have this problem too, then I right-click on the link and coose 'Save Link As...' from the menu that pops up, then the download window appears as usual. Helgi Örn On Sun, 01 Oct 2000, you wrote:
