	I think they just moved the files to a different FTP server, as I
downloaded them a while ago - I haven't got them to work yet.

	An alternative to M$'s SDK is to use the GNU Win32 include files.
The license to it means that you can't sell your software, but as you're
using RSXDJ, you can't do this anyway. I can't remember any URLs, but it's
on all good GNU mirror site with a name like 'windows32-api'. I know
Sunsite UK has it (ftp://sunsite.doc.ic.ac.uk/packages/gnu/ I think for
GNU stuff).

	I hope this helps,
