   Hypercard IIGS is classified like System Software, copyright by
Apple, and they control the distribution of it. It is NOT to be copied
around as the "READ_ME_FIRST" file in that directory (it's
ftp://mirror.apple.com/mirrors/Apple_SW_Updates/US/Apple_II/HyperCard_IIGS_1.1/
) to get it clearly states. I told you in an earlier message where to
get it just fine; if your GUI web browser is the problem in scrambling
the downloads, then I have two words for you: DITCH IT.

   Find a ftp program (plenty available), and learn to use it instead.
The URLs for Hypercard (as I quoted to you from the FAQ earlier) are
for FTP, so you don't have to suffer through any mangling of anything
with a point-and-drool GUI interface. Talk to your sysadmins or a
friend with a clue as to how to properly use the internet and respect
copyrights.
