Anyone else able to download lately from the bbs archive site?
archives.thebbs.org ??? I can see the visible link to ftp the file.
Clicking it won't download it. Right clicking to save as gets me the file
name to save, but then the host never sends the file. Seems to just have
happened within the last week or so.

Just did it a moment ago and the file downloaded without problem.
I do notice that some of the files are 0 bytes long. I wonder if some of them
are just missing.

Right click on file you want to download and select open in new tab and the
download for your browser should work. In Firefox in brings up Opening
(filename) and you have option to open or download. Works for me, just tried
it, so it is still functional.

Yep, it's working now so whatever the problem was it was temporary.
