(tech) Anyone know where to download a Slackware Iso?

For the latest version I mean.
my only internet connection currently is through my school which blocks torrents & I don’t have any ftp software that’ll dl a directory w/ all it’s subdirectories. . .

actually, a zip or rar (or whatever) with all the files would work too. . .

The official site had Isos a long time ago, but they stopped hosting them because of bandwith issues, and it seems like all the mirrors on their site followed suit.

Ok, now if you had looked at any of those links on your search, you would have realized that the 1 or 2 that even claim to have a download (not counting torrents) don’t really have it.

They don’t have the .iso file
They did, about a year ago but they had to stop hosting them because of bandwidth issues.
