Hello, web downloads don't seem to work right in Mac OS X (PPC).
Yes, cl_allowWWWdownload is 1.
If you need technical specs, ask.

how recent is your client? only the last 1 or 2 of tjw's clients support http downloads (and not all servers...)

cl_allowDownload and cl_wwwDownload

Also, it would be interesting to know what "doesn't work right" means...

Step 1: Do you really have cURL library?

Sorry, no, I wasn't entirely sure what it meant.
Tjw's documentation just says to turn on those variables, nothing about requiring a curl library.
So, where can I get a curl library for Mac OS X?
