**OT-- what is a mirror?

Well, roughly speaking, a bunch of your pals decide to help you out by supplying bandwidth from their servers, all around the world. You can get Troops from several mirror servers. Scroll down the page, and there are lists of several episodes, from several different mirrors.

When in doubt, pick a mirror at random!

Don't feel bad if you are having trouble- the Force.net has been under hacker attack lately. Some little boy broke in to their server and trashed their home page, and who knows what else.

Please do not kick yourself, but do scroll down the page! I think you will find the episodes worth all the trouble.

Say it loud, say it proud- "Quicktime 3 rules!"

I did see that and I did click on it. It brings me to a page with several mirrors. I went to all of them
and either nothing was there or the page was down or you had to sign up for the service.


Yeah, it is a little confusing...

At the head of each line is the mirror name followed by the sponsor of the mirror:

Mirror #1 (Courtesy of Ulink Internet)

The first part if the line is the download link. Be sure to click on the words "Mirror #1", not the name of the mirror sponsor (Ulink Internet)

It may take a minute to respond, or not at all depending on how busy it is - try others down the list if you have no luck initially...
