Are you sure? when I used my favorite search engine with the file name 
of the window's installer [ "gimp-2.6.5-i686-setup.exe" ] for GIMP 2.6.5 
as the search parameter, I found multiple sources from which the Windows 
installer for GIMP 2.6.5 can be downloaded. In addition, the source code 
for all GIMP versions is available through the GIMP website.


But you might also take a page from my "playbook": I save nearly every 
software upgrade I download. A habit, I suppose, going back to my first 
days of internet use, when I had slow dial-up service, informed by the 
fact that my first download to about three hours, and it took me 
multiple attempts to download the complete file. Somehow, after 
downloading, I botched the file, and trashed the downloaded installer 
after saving it; when I needed (for reasons I can't recall at this 
point) to re-install, I had to download again. Last time that happened.
