I can't quite remember where, since it has been a while since I've downloaded it, but I know it's somewhere at the Origin web site (but then, where else would it be

A few notes about Proving Ground (since I seem to be one of the only six people who actually played it
).
It added some fricking cool new stuff. The *BEST* WC asteroids ever were in proving grounds -- it had little ones, medium ones and huge-ones. You could hide behind them and be obscured from radar.
It had a mode of play where you collected new weapons and shield upgrades as you fought another ship in a deathmatch. There was some nifty new stuff like an anti-cloaking weapon, too.
