Care to explain what that link is for?

I get an ‘untrusted connection’ warning from Firefox for it.

And a summary for the (very likely swedish) texts would not hurt…

Its pdf and both swedish and english

first document is a.

Legal Implications of the Project Entropia:
Conducting Business in Virtual Worlds.

second document is a.

An ethnographic study of the online world Project Entropia.

“I get an ‘untrusted connection’ warning from Firefox for it.” me to from Firefox but not from Internet Eplorer.

In Internet Explorer, I get this:

There is a problem with this website’s security certificate.

The security certificate presented by this website was not issued by a trusted certificate authority.

Security certificate problems may indicate an attempt to fool you or intercept any data you send to the server.
We recommend that you close this webpage and do not continue to this website.

Everything fine here (IE9).

It is possible that you have connection problems to the (server of the) issuer of the security certificate.

If so, the certificate cannot be validated and generates a warning.

It’s ok to open them nonetheless.

I haven’t found an english version of the thesis (second link), but there’s is a paper by the same guy in English
called “Configuring the player: subversive behavior in Project Entropia”
