Description artibee 2007-12-05 22:46:09 UTC 
When I get to the download page for the NB6 Solaris SPARC "all" bundle,
my download was started automatically, and completed successfully. Nice.

Of course, I wanted to examine each of these relevant links:

    License Notices | Release Notes | Installation Instructions

So I clicked on "License Notices" which took me to:
    http://www.netbeans.org/about/legal/product-licences.html
then when I went "Back" to the download page, it started to download
the installer once again (netbeans-6.0-solaris-sparc-1.sh).

Similar occurrences when following the other 2 links and going back:
    http://www.netbeans.org/community/releases/60/relnotes.html
    http://www.netbeans.org/community/releases/60/install.html

Since this seems to be the expected behaviour, I would like to
suggest that perhaps at least these 3 links might pop-up in a new
browser window (so as to avoid use of "Back").
