How the heck to get hold of the VirtualBox windows download

I have Ubuntu running on my XP machine and I want to use VBox rather than rebooting via GRUB when I switch (for cross-platform software development purposes).

Big problem is that I go to the Sun download area for Vbox, select the 32bit Win version and straightaway I get the error "Not Found
The requested object does not exist on this server. The link you followed is either outdated, inaccurate, or the server has been instructed not to let you have it."

I've tried through 3 web browsers, with/out firewalls etc., but no success. Anyone know what's going on?!

Links are currently broken.

Sun is aware, and I'd expect them to be fixed soon.

Thanks for that information. I thought I was going mad or silly (perhaps I was anyway).

The downloads page seems to be broken again, at least the Windows download isn't working.
I don't know how to contact support, it says I need some kind of special code in order to request support.
I will post the URLs shortly since the forum won't allow me to post them on my first visit.
