honestly, for just a few dollars, you can get it on CD - even on ebay. that way, you don't have to worry about all the hazards of downloading...and, you'd be supporting a linux org. in fact, you should join a local LUG (linux users group) and ask the people there! that way, you get what you need AND become part of your local community.
