Thor News Reader Site Recovery
I am working on recovering the site for the Thor newsreader. It was originally at http://www.thule.no/thor but is beings resurrected at http://thor.remotecpu.com . I have most links and files recovered but there is one file I can't seem to find anywhere. The files is called "Current_classes.lha" and is the 2.1 update to Class Act. Does anyone by chance have or know where I can get this file? I have googled, yahoo'd, bing'd, etc... all dead ends. Any help would really be appreciated.

I had a quick Google and in addition to ftp.thule.no, from looking at http://smjm2001.tripod.com/amiga.html it was formerly available from http://www.finale-dev.com/archives/
Sometimes you can recover old no-longer-valid files from the Internet Archive. They probably do have the file, but due to their overly-restrictive robots.txt policy you can't download it. [For domains which expire and/or change ownership (which over time happens to most domains), if the new domain owner puts a robots.txt file to exclude web crawlers, the Internet Archive prevent access to all previous archived versions of that site. Even if the completely-unrelated old sites at that domain didn't exclude robots at the time. You could try asking them to manually reinstate access to archived copies of that site.] Luckily it seems I downloaded that file back in 1999 (or perhaps the datestamp on my copy was set to the file date on the web server?). The file I have is dated 22-May-99 21:29:40. I'm not sure whether there was ever a more recent version. |

Thank you very much for sharing that file. That was the missing piece to finishing the restore of the Thor website. I look forward to restoring some more sites.
Thank You, Marc |
