The pithy ruminations from Leslie Jensen on
<Re: How to get the video file> were:

*** WARNING *** SPOILER FOLLOWS

The famous file is an 18MB video -- it's about 2~3 minutes long, and seems to
be stolen^H^H^H^H^H^Hcopied from Eurosport tv. No pr0n. Nothing to get the
net.censors upset, except for the bandwidth! It's got some good footage of
the World Rally Car races, edited and set to music. Overall, it's nice, but not
worth all this fuss (particularly if you can actually watch Eurosport!).

Oh yeah, it's also encoded in a proprietary, Windows Media format. After
downloading it over a slow link here in Zagreb, I then had to find and build an
appropriate viewer. All in all, it's fun to watch once, maybe twice. That's
about 1/12 of the time it took to download and get the software ready.

The driving is pretty spectacular.

If I can probably put it somewhere for you. Just ask me off the list.

=> After all the mail concerning the video I got curious. And I have the same
=> problem, I can't download it.
=> I've done it in all possible ways (browser, ftp client, ftp from prompt)
=> :-(((
=> I can get into the directory put permissions are denied on the file.
=> Maybe one of you have the possibility to store this now famous file :-)) and
=> let me/us download from there?
=> Cheers
