The website and contents or file types are made available now by
Rubywand from the URLs
I mentioned.  You should email him with any problems you have with all
this.  I no longer
have any managment access to the site and haven't for many years.
Again I'd suggest you
email Rubywand with any problems you are having with the archived
files etc.  I'm sure he
can be of help with your needs.

Cheers!
