I've seen the 'Netscape' thing mentioned here before, but found I had
the same problem using IE.   A work-around which usually worked was to
download the .ipk 2 or 3 times, changing the 'save as' name slightly
each time.   As most of the programs are fairly small, it wont affect
your on-line time too much.


Interestingly, this seems to be a Windows/PC problem.   I now use an
Acorn RiscPC running the RISCOS operating system for all my Zaurus
downloads/installs, and have not had this problem once.
