The APOD website was not showing a new picture for today, and had yesterday's (14th Aug) APOD displaying instead - for a few hours actually. No problems with it now though.
Regards,
Andy.

Thank You Andy. My problem is that I am having trouble downloading the entire APOD program to my PC. I'm not sure if it is Vista compatible, and looking for help. I go to the site to view pictures, but still seeking that wake up auto downloaded picture.
