Press the 'Free' button at the bottom and it will give you another page with a brief countdown, then the link will appear. Right-click and save when the link appears.

Ok! lol it is kind of hard to figure out! When you click on the link scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and there will be a place that says free click on there and then it will take you to another page. Scroll down to the bottom of that page as well and it will say a bunch of stuff and it will say:

worked fine for me....very nice video....you have captured the mood of the horrific tragedy while also providing a glimmer of hope that New Orleans may someday return to the city it once was.

Nice job....

It worked -- follow his directions...go down to the bottom of the page, pick "Free" for the download, wait as it ticks down the time of the download, then click the .wmv file to open and play it. It's long, but very good. I particularly liked part near the end with NOLA's highlights.

Nope, not a scam. The host site 'RapidShare' is a free file hosting service which allows files of up to 50 meg to be uploaded and shared (for free, the 'Premium' service is where a file uploader can pay a fee to upload and distribute even larger files than 50 meg) without even registering with them. The service is paid for via advertising in much the same way Geocities hosting was. Millions of people use rapidshare. The user interface sure is confusing though, untill you get accustomed to it.

Netscape will work but you'll need to have JAVA script enabled of course.

No offense intended...but watching Floydbuster's video updates seem so easy. :)
