Hi All,
I have been the one like you now who eager to find the source code and errata of my WROX books that purchased before, but eventually can't get any ideas of where and how to do so and why the books are currently not (and will no longer be) listed in
www.Wrox.com. After visting the P2P forum, you have a little idea, but maybe more terrible to you that, you are told to contact
www.Apress.com for further enquiry.
It is what I have ever been encountered too.
Maybe the following Q&A may answer you:

Q: Why my purchased WROX books no longer be found at www.Wrox.com now?</u>
A: (Quoted from this post:
http://p2p.wrox.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6033 , by Hal Levy)
WROX publishing was orginnaly owned by a company named PEER. However, PEER went out of business, and then another publishing named Wiley purchased the WROX brand as well as 30 WROX books. Only those 30 books are now listed on
www.Wrox.com site, the remainder were purchased by another publishing named APRESS (
http://www.apress.com).
So, as a result, if you can't get your books currently at
www.Wrox.com, that means the books you purchased is now owned by APRESS publishing, and hence you should contact APRESS (
www.apress.com) instead of Wrox (
www.Wrox.com) anymore.
