Re: Free sharpen filter from MetaCreations

I've been trying on average once an hour for the last 3 days.
For the last day it isnt just the free filter that is inaccessable,
their entire online store is down. Their web feedback page is also
down, or its been pulled. I suspect that this isnt a marketing ploy,
instead I suspect that *they* got suckered into using an
NT based e-commerce package.
