Chapters 2 and 3 just showed up on Usenet

Not a usable link at all, far as I can determine -- pasting that into the addess bar of the IE here at work crashed the browser... and changing the protocol to httpdidn't get me anything either.

Changing the protocol to httpwon't work - "ftp://" means that it's connecting straight to an FTP server, without a web interface.
This works fine in Mozilla (and, I'd assume, Netscape, SeaMonkey, and the other browsers that use the same architecture); it's IE that isn't playing well with the Internet.
If you happen to have a standalone FTP program, connect to ftp.gweep.ca using anonymous as your UserID and your e-mail address as your password. Then head down the directory tree along the path pub/anime/anime-fan-works/Miscellaneous/Drunkards-Walk, and you'll get to the right part of the archive.

I just tried the link using IE7 and it worked.

I'm stuck with IE 6 at work.
Home I have Mozilla and Firefox. Here, I have bupkis.

I built the link from the root (ftp.gweep.ca) using IE6 last night to make sure nothing had been changed with the server. It worked fine then, and it's working fine now (just double checked it). Rob's right about the h t t p protocol - make sure the browser isn't sticking that in front of the ftp://ftp.gweep.ca/blahblahblah, because it won't work if it does.
Also, you don't have to install anything to be able to see this (or at least you shouldn't). Sometimes I get pop-ups when I go to ftp sites via IE6. I always decline and haven't had any problems.

Interesting time stamps, since the release-to-usenet message for all 5 parts went out at the same time.
btw - each chapter is in an individual piece in the RAAC archive (not-a-clickable-link because it won't code right): ftp://ftp.gweep.ca/pub/anime/anime-fan- ... oldowl.jpg[/img][/td]
