Hi Chela,
I suspect that K1000 hasn't caught up with Bookshare yet. The change was only implemented in the last few days. I have no idea what K1000 will do. There is no password required for either daisy or brf files downloaded from the Bookshare web site now.

I thought the original idea for passwords to books was to keep bookshare members from sharing books with nonbookshare members. Does this mean that bookshare finally trusts us? Na, it's gotta be something else.

    Hi Kim,
    Yes, the only time you will need to type a password from here on
    is when you log into the Bookshare web site.
    I didn't ask why the change to not requiring passwords to open
    zip files was made, so don't know.  Sorry.

    Hi, Mayrie, this is news to me. So the only time we need a
    password is when the Bookshare site requires our email address
    and password? Write me back and confirm please. I can't say this
    boggles the mind but it does seem to mean one step less to do.
    Just out of curiosity, what made the gurus on Bookshare decide we
    needn't put in passwords for opening the files? If you don't
    know, don't worry about it. The last question is just curiosity
    as I said. I was just wondering out loud. Have a great week.
    Regards, Kim Friedman.

    Hi Everyone,
    There is no longer a password needed to open any zip file
    downloaded from Bookshare.  That changed midweek this past week.

    I'm not sure when the last time you tried it was, but I just
    finished downloading two of them, both when logged into my own
    account, and while logged out using a public domain book. Both
    times, it worked fine, though interestingly, I didn't have to
    type my password when opening the BRF downloaded from my own
    account. Maybe it's because I went into my book history, and
    downloaded the most recent book? That shouldn't have any effect
    on the password, but I'm not sure...

    Hi all,
    I can't download any brf files, starting yesterday.  Is this
    part of the website problem?  It isn't my computer, but it is
    very frustrating!!
