Since ELSAwin comes on 5DVDs, I'm guessing it's pretty big.

All, I tried HTTrack, and since attempting the site download using the software, I can no longer link to the site.

My uneducated guess is that the server hosting this site detects that a program is attempting to copy it, records the IP address and then blocks any future attempt to access the site!!!

IT geeks, is this why some of us now cannot access the site?

Has ANYONE had success in downloading a mirror of the site??

Like most, I'm very keen to get this down in a hard format, but looks like I am now restricted (I can still access it at work though).

HELP .... PM me if you have managed a mirror or PDF

Guys, if you want to download an RS6 manual, try emanual online:

http://www.emanualonline.com/Cars/Audi/ ... anual.html

For £9.99 you can download all VAG cars up to 2010. I've got one and it looks complete. I takes approx 5Gigabytes of your disk. I haven't checked it all yet, but I have managed to find all the info I needed so far. It is a bit cumbersome as you have to run it through a virtual machine using WMware software, but instructions are available on the site.

You have to pay, but it works.

Just get it off ebay. If it takes 3 days to get it in the post that's still not a bad data transfer rate.

679kbits/sec... it's not that great. It's certainly not gunna fill my pornstash at an acceptable rate. However, I will admit that the facility to have infinite concurrent 'downloads' is of interest...
No matter where you go, there you are.
