Eric Bray may have found the problem:

When I tested the download link of the FTP WHTECH site, I came across the fact that the links to the complete collection of Barry Traver's Diskazine, "The Genial Traverler", were in files suffixed with ".exe" and that most modern (2020) browsers will not allow their users to download and run files with that suffix. So, I zipped my collection of "The Genial Traverler" diskazines and placed them on the above 'cloud' site.

The unzipped disks are in V9T9 (Win994a) format and you may have to run Fred Kaal's program, "TiDir", to convert them into TIFILES format.

the problem is norton's. they aren't responding to our request for rescan or proof of the actual issue..    even if there is some EXE file on there, that doesn't give them carte blanche to block the entire site.. and have zero recourse and no way to override or get the block removed. Both Don and myself have requested details on the issue, and a rescan and gotten no response for weeks.  It's like nobody works there ..  and they continue to collect money from the people that still pay to use their software..  and don't respond to any email..   I still have no response to the email I sent the first time!
