Sue,

I just downloaded the Outlook plugin with no problem.  I know that
SourceForget, who hosts SpamBayes, has had major problems in the past couple
weeks (they had a breakin I believe).

On the download page there is a link to select a different mirror site than
the default:

    https://sourceforge.net/settings/mirror_choices?projectname=spambayes&filename=spambayes/1.1a6/spambayes-1.1a6.exe

You might try that and select a topologically closer mirror.  I see there
are Australian and Korean mirrors.  Perhaps one of those will work better.

If all else fails I can put a copy on my personal website.
