VC202 download link broken?

I'm trying to download VC202, but not having much luck. All the other DL's seem OK, just not VC202. From the Download VMWare Infrastructure 3 page, the "download now" button links to here:

http://www.vmware.com/download/download.do?downloadGroup=VC202

However, this link just appears to redirect to another copy of the download header, inside a header from the main VMWare page.

I've tried different browsers, clearing cache/cookies, etc... but no luck.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

The file is there the link is just broken. If you want to download it know here is a trick to access it.

1. select download on version 2.0.1

2. login and accept aggrement.

3. once you get to the option of iso or zip copy the shortcut and paste it into notepad. it should look like this

http://www.vmware.com/download/downloadBinary.do?action=downloadBinary&file=[b]VMware-vpx-2.0.1-32042.zip[/b]&pot=1&baseURL=http://download2.vmware.com/software/vi/&code=[b]VI3-VCMS201-ZIP-ARCH[/b]&hashKey=65566be8ee458606823e16e09e432bbb&tranId=000000

4. now just change the above highlighted locations to match the following link

http://www.vmware.com/download/downloadBinary.do?action=downloadBinary&file=[b]VMware-vpx-2.0.2-50618.zip[/b]&pot=1&baseURL=http://download2.vmware.com/software/vi/&code=[b]VI3-VCMS202-ZIP[/b]&hashKey=65566be8ee458606823e16e09e432bbb&tranId=000000

5. paste the new link in the same windows as you originally got the shortcut from.

Done.

Cool, thanks for the tip. I hacked away at that URL last night and couldn't quite find the right match Smiley Sad

Good news, everyone, the link is now up and working, though!
