I plan to download the iso to boot into Sun VirtualBox, but after I enter my Live account info in Safari, the circle loading symbol just never ends. I tried this will Firefox, and I was able to get to the Product-Key part, but when I click Download Now, it crashes. Please Help!
Got a tip for us?

Your browser is crashing when it gets to the Java part of the download. (it uses a Java-based applet as a download manager).
Make sure you're up to date in Software Update and have Java enabled. Post back!
I have never gotten Safari to work with downloading any Windows 7 releases. Get FireFox and use it for a few seconds.
Whoops, interesting.
Yeah, it's the Java part that is going wrong.
OP: Once again, it must be an issue with your Java virtual machine.
Hmm, really? It's usually been Safari that hasnt worked, and we've had to resort to Gecko-based browsers like Firefox or Camino to download.
