Hey all! For a while now I've been trying to figure out how one gets files from the SIMTEL shareware site at http://www.simtel.net/pub/pd/ given the way they've reorganized their site a year or so ago. I can't seem to get an actual URL that references the actual shareware file zip file I want to fetch. Rather, the web pages I fetch seem to lead one around in a circle without ever giving one the URL for the actual file! I could fetch it with standard GET commands using a WWW4MAIL server if I had the reference to the location of the actual file. Just putting in the file name under that directory path doesn't seem to work. Has anyone figured a way to do this via WWW4MAIL servers. For files I really want I've been able to get away with accessing sites referenced as the site of the programs authors in some cases but it sure would be easier to to directly get everything from the simtel site itself as I get regular announcements of new files they get in. Doesn't do me any good to go to a supposedly centralized repository of files if I have to access multiple subdirectory pages to search for a lead to where I can get the file at a site OTHER than the SIMTEL site. Thanks for any help in advance, Mike
