Re: HTTP 404 not found when trying to dl Win binary

Ok, after playing with some of the 'Advanced' settings I found the problem: I have to tick 'Use HTTP 1.1 through Proxy connections' and then it works. I always had it ticked, but I had to reinstall everything after a disk crash - so I guess it's unchecked by default. BTW: If I disable the 'Show friendly HTTP error messages' if just gives a blank page and I know even less, let alone the real problem. Anyway, solved now. PS: This could be caused by many things, I guess, but I have 'Outpost' firewall and a DirecWay sat connection.
