    Hi.

    my friend has been trying to do the download, but he says it get half way through and then stops.

    Is their a way i can download it for him, I am on Vista, so i will need a download location that does not require validation.

    Thanks

    John.

    What about this or that, both at Microsoft?

    No problem to download either and use on other computers.
