Apparently, the link was broken. It was one of those deals where you know the file is there and you even go and check just to make sure but for some reason, the link still doesn’t work; until you realize that there’s an .htaccess file in the directory and that might be the cause of all the problems.
Geez, we can certainly get bit by the stupid bug. Here was the problem with the htaccess file:
Order Allow,Deny Deny from all <Files ~ "\.(css|jpe?g|png|gif|js)$"> Allow from all </Files>
The declaration for zip files is missing, and I think this must be something new in WordPress 2.7 because I don’t remember putting an htaccess file in /wp-content/. If anyone else is having probs getting downloads to work with their WordPress installs, that is where I’d look, and what I’d look for.
Yep, that was the cause of the problem so the link is fixed now.
