I've updated the wiki page to include all these comments.

Here are a few thoughts on these specific comments

That's interesting that it happens on FF. I was able to replicate this issue
with Win XP on IE7 but that should be fixed as of this morning (for IE7, at

Ouch. Sorry sponsors! I fixed this a little bit ago. It should be pointing
to the correct link now. A good ol' javascript typo.

I like this idea very much. This would truly make it a 'download now'
