Hi all,
just upgraded from 2.0c to 2.0d. The whole process (downloading the 21.MB file from xara.com and downloading / installing XML4 plus GDI+) took me just 10 minutes!
Great work!

Lucky you!
Did you download from the "Download Trial" page or from "Your Account Page"?

I, too, am unable to download the latest version of XaraXtreme 2.0d DL.
I downloaded from the online account page (downloads xara.com) to find that that the version was the same that I had already on my system, version 2.0c DL – October 24 2005.
Trying from the Trial Page, (the download from Xara’s sister company, cconcepts.co.uk) either does not start to load or hangs at downloading page 1.
The alternative option “redirect.exe” (from stats.xaraonline.com) does not even load.
For Harry W.:
Directly from http://www.xara.com/downloads/xtreme/
"For Harry W.:

That is the "Download Trial Page".
I have just tried that again but with the same failure.
I am giving up trying and will have to forget this software.
Thanks anyway.

Strange, I downloaded and installed 2.0d without problems from trial page.

ivan
I am glad to report that I got the newer version from the Trial page too...

Bill and Harry, what web browser are you using?
Bill mentioned that it hangs at downloading page 1, which is very strange for a binary download. The reference to page 1 seems to indicate that an ascii mode download is being attempted and that will stop prematurely at the first binary zero byte it receives.
Have either of you tried using Internet Explorer to download the installer?
I know many people "hate" Microsoft and their web browser, but if that is what it takes to get the download why not give it a try.
Having worked on the very early ARPANET segments, the things that many people take foregranted with the internet are still miraculous that they even work. There are billions and billions of things that can happen to a single packet in transit from origin to destination.
"Soquili
Bill and Harry, what web browser are you using?"
Internet Explorer 6.
After clicking the “Download” Button after inserting my e-mail address and country, I get a blank page with an url http://www.cconcepts.co.uk/downloads/XaraXtremeDL.exe shown in the browser address.
Nothing further happens.
Occassionally I get to the next page which states
"Your download should start automatically in a few seconds, but if it does not, you can download Xara Xtreme here. "
It does not start to download nor does it do so after clicking the "here" button.
I have tried the Netscape and Firefox browsers also but with no success.
Does Xara use different download sites for different parts of the world?
