Very odd...the files are on the server and the link matches up with the
directory and filenames.  I'll have to have a chat with someone...

A self-extracting archive is (in this case) a zipfile written to an exe with
a small amount of the unzipping code included.  However, I hadn't thought
about the cross platform issue.  I'll convert them to straight zip once I
iron out the server issues.

Thanks,
Will
