    Great content, but poor delivery. Why is it a static image, and not a proper pdf document? The text is nearly illegible.

      Liz,

      feel free to email me and I will send you the URL (tina at makeuseof dot com). In the meantime, try another browser in case you are using Internet Explorer.

      Be sure to type the password in all lower case. If you are using Internet Explorer, please try another browser. If this problem persists, please email me (tina at makeuseof dot com) and I will send you the URL.

    • Aibek Esengulov May 1, 2012

      I am not sure what the issue here but the fact that you’re using Tor shouldn’t make any difference for the download porocess. What error are you seeing? Did you try downloading using some other browser?
