Hi Chela,
 
I suspect that K1000 hasn't caught up with Bookshare yet.  The change was
only implemented in the last few days.  I have no idea what K1000 will do.
There is no password required for either daisy or brf files downloaded from
the Bookshare web site now.

Well I am still asked to give my credentials...using k1000 12.04. Will this
too change for daisy files too?

Does this mean that bookshare finally trusts us? Na, it's gotta be something
else.

Hi Kim, 
 
Yes, the only time you will need to type a password from here on is when you
log into the Bookshare web site. 
 
I didn't ask why the change to not requiring passwords to open zip files was
made, so don't know.  Sorry.

Hi, Mayrie, this is news to me. So the only time we need a password is when
the Bookshare site requires our email address and password? Write me back
and confirm please. I can't say this boggles the mind but it does seem to
mean one step less to do. Just out of curiosity, what made the gurus on
Bookshare decide we needn't put in passwords for opening the files? If you
don't know, don't worry about it. The last question is just curiosity as I
said. I was just wondering out loud. Have a great week. Regards, Kim
Friedman.

Hi Everyone, 
 
There is no longer a password needed to open any zip file downloaded from
Bookshare.  That changed midweek this past week.

I'm not sure when the last time you tried it was, but I just finished
downloading two of them, both when logged into my own account, and while
logged out using a public domain book. Both times, it worked fine, though
interestingly, I didn't have to type my password when opening the BRF
downloaded from my own account. Maybe it's because I went into my book
history, and downloaded the most recent book? That shouldn't have any effect
on the password, but I'm not sure...

Hi all,
 
I can't download any brf files, starting yesterday.  Is this part of the
website problem?  It isn't my computer, but it is very frustrating!!
