The link fails in the manner common to those who use the mudcat "make a link" which often adds an http:\\mudcat.org to the correct web address (http://mudcat.org/astro.ic.ac.uk/~mrr/starsntides/stars4.doc)

The document opens (for me at least) at http://astro.ic.ac.uk/~mrr/starsntides/stars4.doc

The link balks, objects, argues, and then opens in Word, but should open in whatever program you have for opening .doc files.
