i would love to hear this show but
can't seem to download these files
without having to download the
other periferals - any chance of
uploading these the 'old way'
if not do I have to sign up for free download including the periferals
I am already registered to 'yousendit' file service if that helps

Sorry cozy t, I had no idea there would be periferals you had to download. I wont bother with that file share site again. I've added them to Divshare - hope this works for you. Have been trying for ages to find a decent file sharing system but they all seem to have their drawbacks one way or another. If anybody hears of a good one that's reliable and simple to use please do let me know!
