Digital Edition v 1.7 -problem downloading

[_susan_harvey_]

I installed Digital Editions(DE) v 1.5 on receipt of my Sony reader. Everything was OK. However today I ordered three books from Waterstones. When I clicked to download the books I was directed to the DE screen that advised me that an update was required. I clicked on this and was directed to the DE web page, which stated click on the "install badge below to download update. I cannot see any download badge on my screen. If I click on download on the right hand of the screen nothing happens. How do I get the required update?

The installer is flash program that is about midway down this page:

There should be a big brown button that says "Install" (or perhaps "Launch"), click on it and the install should start.

We have a current bug with the Windows install process, where if you are behind a firewall, the install will fail to complete, if that happens to you,

You can use the standalone installer, which you can download from:
