corky i tried to download it the way you suggested but when i click target the only choice i have at the bottom in save as type is HTML document. it doesn't do what the picture sent does. the only way i could way i could get it was to download it as a zip file but i couldn't get it to go into where i can choose the skins. under comments for this skin there were a couple of people who had the same problem but there were no answers given to this problem.

went and read through the commnent on Candy by Hippy...several others have had trouble downloading this one...at least one other ended with cylcandy (a skin by Elshardo ported by Jazzymjr).

Mysticallady said she uninstalled WB5, loaded it into WB4, then reinstalled WB5

I just started a download with FireFox - it called it Candy.wba and wanted to open with WB.

I'll let you know how it went.

if it was named Candy.zip, try renaming the extension to .wba and then double click it....I'm still waiting on my download (dialup )

FF works every time because it is not MS.
