A lot of it may be Oracle's site. Sometimes I wonder if they really intend
for those to be downloaded. It's really hit and miss.
If you do try, though, and it doesn't work, back out a few screens and go
through the process again (agreeing to the agreement and such). I think they
have some mechanism set up so they only allow one download at the end of the
process. If the first one messes up--it doesn't allow you to try again from
the same page. Have to back up one or two screens and try again.
Good luck!
