I've been trying to re-download Skype, and keep getting a "connection
reset by peer" error. Anyone tried DL'ing this lately?

If you have an email address at yahoo or hotmail I'll email it to you. I think they both have a 10meg limit on email attachments

It gets to 1.1mg then it stops, with the above error, well for me anyways.
Have been trying over several days. I actually did have it then I un-installed
it because I rearly used it. I wonder if that has anything to do with why it
wont give me another copy. Although it seems silly why it wouldn't.

nope dont have a hotmail address, and never used the yahoo one wouldn't
even know if it works lol

I just finished downloading it np. Do you know what your attachment limit is for your ISP? Skype is about 6.9meg I think. Otherwise pop over to yahoo, create a new account and I can send it there to you. If you have a problem then, at least you will know its either at your end or your isp

BTW do you use a download manager like ReGet etc. They can often pickup a download if its dropped for some reason and then start off downloading again at where it dropped off

Yes I have changed ISP's I wonder if that has something to do with it.
and the fact that it an .exe I have also looking through my puter settings
to see if anything there maybe stopping it.

Will go check out my yahoo account, and get back to you.

Thanks Paul, my emails are limited to 2mg

I've sent a test mail to my yahoo address "xrekcor AT yahoo Dot com Dot au"
it seems to be taking awhile to appear.

do you have access to a website you can upload to? you will probably have
to put it in a zip file. So it's extention doesn't have .exe

I'll send both the zip and the .exe. The Zip file is bigger than the .exe :P

It seems to be taking for ever to upload to yahoo as an attachment Rob. I'll let it run for a bit more.

You should have the .exe file by now Rob. If it doesn't make it through let me know and I'll try the .zip file
