For almost a week now, I have been unable to download instructions from
the LEGO
site: http://www.lego.com/eng/buildinginstructions/ I have been getting a
page
saying "Server Error", no matter which instructions I choose. I sent an
email
off, but got no reply, and then asked some other people, and found that
many are
not getting the same error.

Hmm, I get Server Error too. Maybe it doesn't like Australians? (By the way,
I didn't see the Death Star instructions listed).

I'm thinking maybe they've put in some anti-scanning check, to try to stop me
getting data for my instruction download page:
http://www.br-eng.info/words/?page_id=29 and said check is blocking a large
number of Australian IPs. My ISP is Primus, and as my IP changes every day or
so, they may have blocked a large chunk of IPs. At least 2 other Aussies so far
have said they are experiencing the same problem.

But I could be wrong.

(PS: Their page does not list all instructions available, mine does (well up
until I started getting the error). Search for 10143, you will find it is there,
but you won't be able to download it because of the error.)

Ross,

It's not working for me or another European so it seems they might have reversed
their earlier NA blocked/rest of the world allowed system. Very odd either way.
