Since a few days I try to download the last Great Cow Basic hot release and each time the download stops at 66% . Do you know where is the problem? Thanks Anobium.

[Anobium]

No issues here.

Try the direct link @ http://sourceforge.net/projects/gcbasic/files/Hot%20Releases/31_03_2015/GreatCowBasic%20Hot%20Release.zip/download

Thanks. I tried this link but the result is the same: the download stops at 66%. I don't understand where is the bug (my OS is Windows 8.1 with Avast antivirus)

Hugh just tried from Australia. I am in the UK. This is odd.

Do you have dropbox? Send me an IM to link up and I will put in dropbox as temp measure. We have a lot of daily downloads so this is odd.

Avast.... they did have an issue in March. They worked with me to fix. Update Avast please.

Problem solved . It seems that the failure whas attributable to the antivirus, but I had any warning. Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.
