K3 Utility and Safari 4.0.1

[Gary, W7TEA]

When I attempted to download the latest beta using Safari on OS 10.5.7
the process stuck after "loading 2 of 3 items."  Switching to Firefox was
successful.  This happened some time back and I couldn't find the response.

I didn't have any trouble on 4.0.1.  But I don't download the files  
directly with Safari.   If you add a "/" to the end of the URL, the  
Beta directory links as a read-only drive.  It's then a simple matter  
to copy out the files.

Adding the "/" at the end of the URL works well, Grant.  Thank you.
Always downloaded them directly before but will adopt this approach.

Assuming you are using OSX, on the finder menu
Go->Connect to Server (cmd-K)
enter
ftp://ftp.elecraft.com/K3/firmware/beta
in the 'Server Address' field, click +
click 'Connect'
now you have a direct FTP connection to the Elecraft Server and it's  
remembered it in the list too.
just go pick the files you want, as if they were files in any other  
folder
