It's not 2.0.0.1, it is 2.0.1. Release Candidate 1 went to the
pre-release area a few hours ago. The pre-release area is NOT for
full release: it's for QA. So, bearing this in mind, you can get
the Win32 installer from this link:

http://firebirdsql.org/download/prerelease/win32/Firebird-2.0.1.12810-0-Win32.exe

Or if you would prefer to have the non-installer kit,
http://firebirdsql.org/download/prerelease/win32/Firebird-2.0.1.12810-0-Win32.zip

Hmmm, the only problem with that is that someone has stuffed up the
access permissions for the win32 folder. I'll look at what he has
done and fix it if I can. Meanwhile, if the download fails with
"access prohibited", try again later. (The Linux folders are OK.)
