I tried to access archive.org and the site is down. I wanted to download the English ISO of the 486 mod for the Windows XP Operating System and I can not access it at all. This is a real annoyance, now half of the Internet is gone. I hope it can be brought back up again, I want to emulate a 286 PC and try the Windows XP on it. Or even try and emulate a 286 and run Windows 3.0 in real mode. That would be a good challenge. I downloaded the Windows 3.0 ISO image with multimedia extensions from the WinWorld website, this would be fun to try out in a VM. But I hope the website comes back, this might just be a temporary outage. This does happen to websites from time to time, once Twitter went down for a short time. And Instagram, you just need to be patient and wait for it to come back up. It is a panic when archive.org goes down because of the trove of content on the site and you do not want it to go down for good. That would be very bad.

This is reported by users all over the world, and this is not just me. https://www.isitdownrightnow.com/archive.org.html. But hopefully, this will be addressed eventually.
