I need help downloading the user manual (467KB) for an LG model
EC990SW VCR from this URL:

http://au.lge.com/products/sidemenu/list/video_vcr___PRD|MANU_manu.jhtml

I have installed the DJVU plugins for my browser (Opera), but I can't
access the appropriate file (EC990SW_NA2ALL_78B_NEW.djvu). I have also
tried Firefox. My brother who is using IE also cannot access the file.

I would be most grateful if someone could provide me with a direct
link, or send the manual to my e-mailbox.

The subject VCR is powering up with "SAFE" in the display. I suspect
this is due to a child lock.

No, there is a copy of "Marathon Man" stuck in it.

Looks like the LG site wants you to launch the manual directly from their site.
Seems that you have to allow the LizardTech DjVu viewer to be installed or it
doesn't allow the manual to be accessed.

I have the WinDjVu viewer, which is a much better viewer than LizardTech's
viewer (IMHO), and I don't want to go through the pain of juggling software apps
on my system just for one document.

I've installed LizardTech's plugins in my browser, which handles other
Netscape plugins as if they were its own, but I can't even view the
manual, let alone save it. I can't tell you how much this annoys me.

I don't have the remote control for this VCR, but AFAICT if it's
anything like other LG remotes, it will have a C.Lock or Lock button
on it.

After writing the above, I just received a copy of the manual in my
mailbox. The remote does have a C.Lock button. Thanks Paul.
