Roger, You give me too much credit for being thorough handling facts. ;-) I do see lots of Arena 1.1 download links on the WF site. They were put into 2 threads by one user who appears to be connected to the Arena team. At least some of the links in the 2 threads are still working. I do not see any links on the website itself. I really don't understand what the conflict is. A forum user posts download links and someone complains to the provider claiming the links are illegal. The provider threatens the forum. The forum bans the user and those close to the user for putting up the links. The only plausible explanation I see is that a third party is instigating a conflict. But that is my conjecture and speculation. -Norm
