I Command-Clicked on the URL, and Netscape started downloading the file
without any problem. No 404 error.

IMPORTANT:

The news-hopper-12-demo.hqx file on info-mac actually is the updater, NOT
the 1.2 demo. The file was submitted as news-hopper-12-updt.hqx, but the
archivers overlooked the 'updt' and thought that was just the new demo.

I have reported the problem and been told that the file name will be
changed to news-hopper-12-updt.hqx asap. However, with all the mirrors and
stuff, it's likely this file will float around on the net for quite some
time.

The demo for version 1.2 is NOT out yet.
