Re: [libreoffice-website] LibreOffice: Dubious download behavior LO on Windows/IE ?

Never happend to me on my clients pc's namly:

serveral windows editions here are to name a few
XP sp2 & 3 32bit, Vista SP1 with ie 8 and 9, Se7en with and with out sp1
32&64bit with IE9,FF5,Chrome, fedora 15, ubuntu...

could this be that your on a dutch version? also these systems where
personally handled by me, and not only that but malta's ISP connections go
through to italy's connections...
so inevidently i have a haire rate of finding packet loss rather then
resource consumtion... which would lead me to ask if a install CD is ready
for me to distribute LO on an offline install?
