Hello folks,

adding stable download link via Internet Archive.

Reminder for all folks scraping archive.org for existing snapshots: You need to
be extra careful with larger application installers. Several times I found
truncated / corrupted ones. Always test the downloads before adding archive.org
links to bug reports.

Example:

https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://azcdn01.digitalrivercontent.net/msoffice/pub/X14-02658/X14-02658.exe

Lists two same-day (minute) snapshots where one is seemingly usable.

$ wget
http://web.archive.org/cdx/search/cdx?url="azcdn01.digitalrivercontent.net/msoffice/pub/X14-02*"
-q -O - | grep application/

application/octet-stream 200 TVBNHRO2SRWRMOG3WGC6G7JOHXZABEYB 209492129
--- snip ---

'X14-02658.exe' snapshot payload size is 209492129 bytes = 201M while the
original installer is 248M (comment #0). When running the installer, loader
reports that the executable resource section has been truncated - which is
correct.

--- snip ---
$ wine ./X14-02658.exe

00d0:err:module:map_image_into_view Could not map
L"\\??\\Z:\\home\\focht\\Downloads\\X14-02658.exe" section .rsrc, file probably
truncated
wine: failed to start L"Z:\\home\\focht\\Downloads\\X14-02658.exe"
Application could not be started, or no application associated with the
specified file.
ShellExecuteEx failed: Bad EXE format for
Z:\home\focht\Downloads\X14-02658.exe.
--- snip ---

Fortunately I found this reddit thread:

https://www.reddit.com/r/windows/comments/6hkrrk/does_anyone_still_have_the_legitimate_x1402658exe/

Where the user betacollector64 posted an alternate site link:

https://web.archive.org/web/20140914052509/https://drcdn.blob.core.windows.net/msoffice/pub/X14-02658/X14-02658.exe

Victory? Nope. Even that one is corrupted. No idea why OP/no one bothered to
correct him in the thread. By using archive.org CDX API via command line
interface one can find:

The last one with 259415540 bytes in size is the only snapshot that didn't get
truncated / corrupted.
