I was hosting them for a short period until Robert copied all the 3-5 man bases
back on to his ftp. His address is:

ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu

To not use Internet Explorer you can use an FTP client. There are some excellent
free options around.

FileZilla - http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/

FileZilla is the best free option out there. Try it out. It is very easy to use,
and downloading files is 100 times easier than with IE.
