View Full Version : Problems with downloads?

Looks like I can no longer download anything here, either with FF or IE. I can from other sites, so it's not a browser issue. Has anything change?

Nothing has changed. Are you getting errors or ??

no errors. From FF it stays locked on 0 bytes. From IE, it just looks for file. This seems to happen when download is over a few bytes. For example I got an email about vBexperience but I was unable to download it. Same thing for vB styles.

I went to vBGermany and had no problems. Download was instant in there.

I tried and am able to download zips of 12K.
But not anything above 500K

Hmmm, I really can't think of anything that has changed. The server guys aren't around to ask about this right now though.

Larger files on vbgermany are fine?

Yes, on vbgermany I could download anything, any size.

I just downloaded all three files there without any problem.

Hummm, I still can't download anything from here. Now it does not even open the FF download box. I disabled my antivirus just in case, but still no luck

Have you tried restarting your browser? Restarting your computer?

I tried restarting my PC. Now I just tried restarting FF and the download popup opens. I click on the Pause icon, then click on restart and it goes thru. This is happening only on vb.org. No problems on vbulletingermany, on vbcover or vbadvanced.

And IE will just not download here also.

Can you try another computer from the same internet connection?

Lionel, I did let the server guys know yesterday and I was told they worked on the issue yesterday afternoon. Have you tried to download anything since then (after clearing your cache, of course)?

Thank you Lynne. Yes I am able to download now. I just tried after getting your email.
