Really bugs me too, just like when using Real Player. With 50% of the files
I've downloaded from the Internet (they are correct) the stupid program
tells me that either 'the host can't be found' or that 'the file is
broken'. Instead of giving me a good error page, they direct me to there
homepage! (Which doesn't contain any good information, BTW).
Still, I like when the docs are in HTML instead of HLP since I can use them
in DOS.
I don't see where the problem is here, except for faulty links. The HTML is
still HTML.
