Has anyone else noticed that the Adobe download site being very slow?
I've tried it several times in the last week from two different
locations (in the UK)
and it never really gets above 5k/sec (on my 500k/sec line). This is
a particular
problem with clients using IE who are trying to install the Flash
Player. All they see
is a empty box with no indication that the download is happening at
all. Firefox is
no faster but at least you see the download progress so you know
something is happening.
I'm fairly sure Adobe is aware of this as well as the effect on their
reputation as a "web company"
and is working on a fix but its a bit embarrassing to have to tell
clients "normally its really fast but
right now you need to wait half a hour".
Apart from that Happy New Year to you all...
