Hi :)

I have had this same error about "couldn't find source" on at least 1 but 
possibly 2 or 3 linux distros too.  I had assumed it was just my errant ways and 
found that closing & reopening my web-browser or rebooting the machine seemed to 
allow me to carry on.

The ditch Windows approach seems good advice to preempt other problems but i 
would recommend the dual-boot scenario that most linux distros set-up by 
default.  Of course just taking linux for a test-drive first by using the Cd as 
a bootable Cd is the best 1st step even though it is 100 times slower than a 
proper hard-drive install as a dual-boot it still out-performs Windows for most 
things!

Anyway, Windows is not the culprit here (unusually) and is not the reason for 
changing yet.

Regards from
Tom :)

Hi,

Please add me to your mailing list, I have a problem I would like to post

Has anyone said they have had this happen when trying to download your
software.
When download your software
LibO_3.3.0_Win_x86_install_multi.exe<http://download.documentfoundation.org
/libreoffice/stable/3.3.0/win/x86/LibO_3.3.0_Win_x86_install_multi.exe>215
MB, I keep getting

C:\Documents and Settings\David Hoffman\My
Documents\Downloads\LibO_3.3.0_Win_x86_install_multi(2).exe could not be
saved, because the source file could not be read.

Try again later, or contact the server administrator.

Any advice?

Thanks,
John

yes, dump windows. and please say if this is your PC or part of a company 
network, is there an administrator other than yourself?

When a respected information source covers something where you have on-the-
ground experience, the result is often to make you wonder how much fecal 
matter you've swallowed in areas outside your own expertise.
