Jamie,

If you kept getting the message that the web page
couldn't be displayed, that sounds to me like a
problem with something else other than your file,
though I could be wrong. Maybe Jesse
(jesse.f@xxxxxxxxxxxx) or Peter or someone from
bookshare could tell you -- or Pratik (are you still
here, Pratick?), who seems to be knowledgeable about
things like that.

As far as the time expiring, don't worry about that.
If the Oxford Compion to U.S. History is on the
download list again (and how many people would be
brave enough to validate it? grin), simply download it
and discard it but keep the one you've been working on
and remember to renew it every 7 days. Include the day
you download as day one and then count.

I'm sure the problem will be resolved and it would be
a shame to lose the book. 

Cindy
