I ran across the same problem with that link during the redesign of my website recently. I left the link up, hoping it was just down temporarily, but it's been down for a while now. Hopefully we'll find out what the problem is soon.

I was once known as PC Freak. I always hated that name.

Ah, well that explains it. Unfortunately, the mirror link in that topic didn't work for me either. Hopefully it'll be back soon...

Got this reply from Wengier:

Hi Mick!

Thanks for your concern!

Unfortunately, The HTTP download server for "newdos.yginfo.net" was down a few days ago due to a server problem (but the FTP upload server still works). We are trying to find a solution currently.

"http://www.ipdown.com/msdos71/index.htm" is another case. We no longer use this server, so the temporary MS-DOS 7.10 page on this server was transfered (moved) to the following address about one month ago:

http://dos.e-stone.cn/msdos71/index.htm

In other words,

"http://www.ipdown.com/msdos71/index.htm"

becomes

"http://dos.e-stone.cn/msdos71/index.htm",

which should work fine.

P.S. I'm afraid I'll be even busier than I am so that I won't have much time to go to the web.

Thanks again,
Wengier

Good to hear that it's just a server problem since everything old seems to be disappearing lately. Man I have removed a bunch of bookmarks from some of my old favorite sites.

Yup, definitely good to know. I had to remove multiple links from my site as well recently because of sites that aren't around anymore.

Also good that there is a working mirror available for this one until the main server is back.
