Default FedEx - Fastbid trouble

Has anyone else tried to download the Dec 08 bidpack to Fastbid? I can view it on and download the .pdf file from the FedEx website but can't download it to Fastbid. Here are the two error messages I get when I try...

No error message is available.
and
GetBidpack function failed!


Any ideas?

I frequently have trouble with FastBid issues the first night the bids are out. Almost always works fine the next day. I've actually started waiting till the next day to avoid the trouble.

On the subject of FastBid, I haven't used it in a while but need to renew the annual fee. Does anyone know if you get a new code when you renew?

Bidpacks in the Airbus much goofier than in the past. Weird how they broke the Capt and FO line numbers into separate pieces. Makes one wonder how I'll get to fly with my favorite Capt if the pairings don't quite match up

Probably because of the HKG SIBA lines being added. These won't match up with any Capt lines since there aren't any Capts bidding SIBA for HKG.
