Here are the three mirrors in the USA.

About 8 AM, I was able get in and begin a download but I canceled it to wait for information about a version WITHOUT JRE. I tried to get back in about 8:30 and it said FOBIDDEN, and later it never connected.

In every version of OO.o with JRE that I have fetched, JRE was old. I see no reason why this should be different. Mine is up to date and having to fetch a new version because OO.o had a stale one is annoying. The current version works well. I'll wait until the rush is over.

Warmest Regards

Is anyone else getting a problem accessing the openoffice website to
get the download of openoffice 3.0?

I am getting the following error on the main page the the download page

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /servlets/ContentHelmNoodle on
this server.
Apache Server at www.openoffice.org Port 80

It seems to be an error 403



I suspect the servers are simply overloaded with all the people trying
to download version 3.  I was able to download it earlier this morning,
but have noticed it's now very slow, if I can connect at all.



Speaking of slow.  Since my XP partition on my Thinkpad has limited free
space available, I decided to unpack it to a USB flash drive, but
forgot to use my USB 2 adapter, so that drive is operating as USB 1.  Oh
well, I wasn't planning on going anywhere this week.  ;-)
