I opened a geocities account to host some of my creations. When you click on the link you get "Page unavailable" from geocities. The URL is correct. If you change the address from http://www.geoci.... to http://yahoo.geo... in your browser you can get the file. Is there anything you can do on your end or should I throw rock at GeoCities/Yahoo?

All the people have to do is paste the link into their browser to get it to work. Roy installed a Javascript that allows downloads from Geocites. I guess you have to have it enabled for it to work. -JH.

JAVA is enabled. Still no dice. I think I'll just get more space from my present host.
