Hi Everyone,

It is possible to get the file from the COG website.

In Mozilla firefox, right click on the link and select "Save Link As" from the 
pop-up menu.  You can then save the file to your desktop.

In Internet Explorer, you should be able to right click on the link and select 
"Save Target As" then save the file on your desktop.

Sorry, but I don't know how this is done with a Mac browser.

The reason the link doesn't work if you left click on it is because your 
browser doesn't know what to do with a ".kmz" file, but more importantly 
neither does the web server.  If what I just said is gobbledegook, never mind, 
just follow the instructions above and you should be able to get the file onto 
your PC for use with Google Earth.  Don't forget you have to go to Google, 
download and install Google earth before you can use the grid overlay.

Hope this is some help!

Regards,
Rob
