What sort of difficulties, Phil? What server are you on in SDC? Not that it should matter, as all the module downloads redirect.

Hmm, sounds like your XML data might be out of date. Try refreshing it by going to:

Tools -> Settings
Select Internet and click on the "Refresh XML Data" button.

After your XML data has been refreshed then try to download and install again.

Hi I changed the server and refreshed the XML data.
It did fail twice more on 2 seperate occasions,however I have now completed the download. I can only assume its pressure on the servers is causing errors with the data.
Thx for the help.
