If a user tries to access a link that is not available to that user, then she will get an error message (link #N not available).

So the bottom link (which I tested on your site) is that the protection works, but you get to see things you can't access.

Natch felt that it was better to show all users all the available links as a way of encouraging them to register to use the site.

Thanks for that info, I am also thinking of allowing people to see the links without having to be registered, but not download them until they are.

The vbadvanced latest downloads block is ignoring the permissions like you said.
Did Natch by anychance post the edited code?

tnx
