Right?

If this is a fact, I'll need to throw in the towel. I'm behind a firewall that block ftp.

Or you can edit the proper files and make them look at the http server instead. See http://damnsmalllinux.org/download.html for a list of download servers, more than half of which are http.

This is Linux, there's no throwing of towels :)

I'm on a dorm connection to the internet. It is very heavily firewalled.

If I just can change the link so it points to a http server instead, everything will be just awesome :)

Hello :)

I allready have downloaded the iso and installed dsl on my laptop. But when I use my dsl "click'n run" (i think it was called that) to install programs, such as firefox.dsl and that kind of programs, they said they were installed, but was nowhere on my harddrive to be seen.
