This is new...
I bought a program called "Graphic Workshop Professional" from
Alchemy Mindworks.
I get update messages now and then and never had any problems
downloading them - until today!
I went to their download site:
http://www.mindworkshop.com/alchemy/gwspro.html#download
and when I try downloading using "Winget", a message window pops
up - "Authentication Required" !
Never happened before !
Google shows this to be some new MicroSoft rubbish. (?)
Has this happened to anyone here ?
My Server username and password don't work in it, so I have no idea
WTF is required.
DoctorBill
Is this a SeaMonkey issue?
It seems to me (unless I'm missing something) that you should
contact the
vendor.
SM 1.1 Issue? I don't know. Is it ?
I did contact the Vendor - no answer to date.
Has this come up for anyone else ?
Is it a new thing ? I NEVER saw this kind of thing before today.
DoctorBill
I'm sorry I wasn't very clear. Can you please explain what makes you
think this is a SeaMonkey issue?
Do you have the same problem if you try in a different browser?
I thought perhaps SM 1.1 was requiring some form of Username and password
related to the E-Mail or Server username and password...because I had
never
seen such a thing before and where else would such a requirement come
from?
If it is not related to my server account, WTF is it then ?
I certainly do not have a username/password account for downloading
anywhere.
One never knows about such things if one is not amongst the elite folk
who
write and build software.
Yes?
Is it REALLY that important that I justify my question any further?
Have I committed a heinous transgression by asking ?
DoctorBill
The download is an FTP and it is asking you to sign into your FTP
client. I right clicked on the FTP 3 sight and clicked save target file
as and saved the gwsp30.exe file OK, the other 2 FTP sights would no
download. I left clicked on FTP 1 & 2 and get the pop up but left
clicking on FTP 3 it downloads fine a 13.26 mg file. Hope this helps
So is this something the site (Alchemy Mindworks) did, inadvertently screwed up,
missed something important, what ? I don't even know enough to ask the right
questions.
It is so odd to me. Never saw this type of thing.
Oh well, I got the file, so "be it so!"
Maybe they will answer my query - I am curious.
