Messed up download

The D18S Float by Milton Shupe (http://www.simviation.com/simviation/?t ... &mark=8172)
Won't download. I click on the download file button, and then Firefox's (3.6) pops up with the folder. It doesn't download anything. When you open the folder, zilch.

Works for me -- how are you trying to unzip? I would recommend no one to use the default windows zip thing -- get Izarc

Well, I haven't tried to unzip it. The folder shows up in Firefox downloads, like it's finished, with 0 bytes. When I go to extract
a window pops up Image

Just a thought. Occasionaly I was getting incomplete downloads. When I moused over my file I could see it didnt match the file size of the download. Try waiting a minute before pushing the download button. Let every thing finish and then download. It doesn't happen often but when it does this worked for me.
