How to Install Compiz Fusion on Ubuntu - REPLY TO THIS OPINION

How can anyone give instructions on how to do something without verifying that it works 100% of the time?
I like many other people have gotten this error message

"Connecting to download.tuxfamily.org|88.191.250.18|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
15:07:45 ERROR 404: Not Found."

Now some people have said that it worked fine, and still others have said they got this error message which simply states, the file does not exist in the location YOU gave. Now, is it intermittently NOT there? are you Moving it? Is someone moving it? is the server down VERY OFTEN? if any of these reasons apply, why are the instructions reliable? The answer is, it isnt. just like the server the file is supposed to be at, is not reliable.

Someone needs to get their proverbial s*** together before giving instructions with the implication they are reliable.
