None of the ftp links works for me, either, but the http links do work.

I've asked Dave Mills some time ago concerning this and he told me that FTP
access is restricted. Maybe you could add a hint on this on the download
pages.

BTW, the udel staff has blocked large IP ranges for incoming connections,
even via SSH. For example, the whole IP range of my ISP is blocked even
though it's one of the largest German providers for dial-in connections.

So it's possible that you can use the ftp links but Eric can't.

Also, you know there's recently been an additional restriction
using .htaccess files on some udel directories. Maybe Eric has hit those,
too.
