no luck from me unfortunately.
Here's a tip though, what I usually do if I just need a short passage in a particular font is to type it up at www.whatthefont.com as a sample (using the particular font) and then taking a screendump of it.
If anyone else has a sure fire way of grabbing fonts (which, let's face it, no one is willing to pay for) make sure that you educate all of us, Limewire just plain sucks in this regard.

I pay for my fonts as I am fully aware of the anguish, the pain and the wish for a swift death that type designers go through to design a font.
Aside from that...never heard of the font in question :)

I'm currently downloading about 20,000 fonts, I'll have a look in there (what a task!) when they're all done.

Nope, don't have it. Did a quick search online and it is a commercial font, so you have to pay for it. You may find a good substitute though at www.1001fonts.com or www.fontfreak.com (hope I have those urls right) as they are the ones I regularly use for free font download.
Other than that, my only suggestion (if you need it that badly, don't want to shell out the cash, and are willing to be this sneaky) is to screenshot the page, import it into illustrator (or another program similar) then 'trace' the letters as such to create a vector image of each of them for the word/words you require and arrange as necessary. Only really works if you have a couple of words you want to do though, not a whole page of writing or anything. And rather time consuming for what you are getting. Try the free sites dude :)
