IE. I'm hurt. Firefox is fully compatible with microsoft windows, in fact I believe most of firefox's users use windows. So, im using firefox :P
I cant use bittorrent as all ports minus the magic 80 = closed :( And Im not setting up portforwarding tonight as I am browsing the web :)
I think the laptops cd drive was broken, windows cannot detect it.
Im going to dry a poor mans install, with a compatible cd drive I found taht windows might be able to read but the machien can't boot from.

The iso images were not currupted - but the cd drive would not let itself be booted from. For soem unknown reason none of the actuall dsl iso images have the same md5 checksum as it says they should!

if the checksums are not the same, your current iso images ARE corrupted.... that's what they are used to check for!
