Is it me?
Does anyone know if this demo has been published on a UK magazine coverdisk?
Haven't seen it on PC Gamer.
The program is called "Live for Speed". :-) You didn't say where you are
downloading from but have you tried http://lfs.racesimcentral.com/ yet? I
just tried it again and had no problems opening it with WinRar. If you can
get it, make sure to download a Patch for it too. People are currently
using both Patch C and Patch D because D just came out and there are a few
bugs. You will see different online servers available depending on which
Patch you're using. Patch C is available at www.lfs-league.com
HTH,

Sorry, I meant to put Live for Speed - typo
I just d/l the file from http://lfs.racesimcentral.com/ as you suggested.Yet
again the file shrank to 26MB after the d/l completed, and Winzip reports
"file does not appear to be a valid archive". WinRar fails too, saying
"unexpected end of archive". This is getting bizarre!
I'm running XP Pro and saving to a FAT 32 drive. No other downloaded file
has ever shown this behaviour. wtf?
You may have to use a program to help you download the files. There are 2
free programs that i've heard of: Getright and Download Accelerator Plus.
They are especially useful for 56k modem users as they allow you to interupt
and then later resume a download.
Hope this helps you as LFS is an excellent sim.

> Nice try D, but I'm on 1MB broadband! Tried to download twice more. Even
> tried download to different drive. Next thing is to try download to a
> friend's machine and see if problem persists.
