CORRUPT!!! Only the third (of 3) ISOs labeled "additional content" is okay. The rest are effed up. Don't waste your time downloading.
Original uploader: Thanks, but try checking the stuff before you post.

Pirate_P (2009-11-05)

Wow great upload. Thank you very much!
To brigton, Huh? I just burned the first ISO with ImgBurn and its working perfectly. Try burning at a much slower speed or use ImgBurn to get a good burn.
The only glitch, it wouldn't play videos in FireFox. I had to make IE my default browser to get it to work. As soon as I let TrainSignal use IE instead of Firefox everything worked.
Looks and works a little better than the CBT nugget cd's I have. Again thanks for a smokin upload. :-)
