I think the download link for Windows Electrum is broken. Help!

[oicu812ic]

Hi all, I want to download Electrum, but the link always times out.  I have windows 7.  I've tried the link with both Firefox and IExplorer.  I tried weeks ago and again today, which is weird.  I would think you've heard about this by now, so I'm wondering if something else is wrong.

I've tried to find contact info on the page but can't find an email.  

Can anyone tell me how to contact the developer(s)?

Thanks.

Here is the Electrum download page.

You can contact the developer on the Electrum thread here at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=98.0

I just checked the download links and they worked fine.

Just to be clear, you tried the Windows Installer link?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Yes no problem. Are you behind a firewall? You should be able to download any version of Electrum in less than a minute.

Do you get time-out when visiting that page or when trying to download from the link in that page? This might work for you > http://download.electrum.org/2.7.12/

Shorena, your links work!  Thank you.  (Wondering if a firewall is causing this problem for me...)

Now, you have exposed my ignorance on another topic, that of digital signatures.  I've never known what to do when signatures are offered.  I know this innocent question could be a bog, so feel free to direct me to a resource if it's too much to explain.
