I thought it was .com, which is not working for me at the moment. The
.net version does not work either. I suspect they're off-line
temporarily during the transition to Lenny, but that's just an
uneducated guess.

Ah, but that's a different site (or VERY reworked in just a few days)
from the goodbye-microsoft.com site with which I'm more familiar. The
site with which I'm familiar allows a Windows user to install Debian
from within the browser without having to download installation media
(it installs a boot stub to the hard drive, which then begins the normal
net install). Very convenient.

A whois says that domain is not even registered.

The OP's goodbye-microsoft.com does exist, accepts connections to port
80 but that's about as far as it goes.

However, the good news is that goodbyemicrosoft.net seems to work ok.

It seems they are back and working. This is the site you want to go.

Works for me, maybe it was a temporary outage?

If you know the file you are looking for (debian.exe) then you can
Google for it and make it easer to find.
