Please report Subsim download problems

There have a few dead links noticed in Subsim downloads. These are easy to fix. Please let Sailor Steve or myself know of any dead links and we will fix them. Don't miss any good mods by not being able to download.

I use Seamonkey, a Mozilla browser suite similar to the old Netscape Navigator and using the same engine as Firefox. I'm not sure if it's an issue with Subsim's downloads where there's a MIME-type not being properly defined according to standards or a bug in my browser because I can download ZIP and RAR files without any trouble and Internet Explorer works with 7-zip file downloads here.

Download AL Zip. It's free and will open any compressed file. I have used it for over a year with IE 8 and Mozilla without problems/

Just forget I ever brought it up, really.

I think I should have posted this in the proper place instead as the initial intent of this thread was to only have reports of dead links and missing files.
