Trouble with MegaUpLoad


Hello everyone

First let me say thanks for the shows I have been able to download. I certainly appreciate everyone's hard work.

I have been having trouble with files found at megaupload.com.
I click on the link and wait until "click to download" shows up and then it goes to "loading download" and that's it. I waited an hour one time, came back and nothing had happened.
Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if I need certain software.
I'm on a Mac.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
cheers!

Hey there everyone
Just looked at my Download Manager and the file I was trying to get is coming down the pipe. A bit slowly, but it's working it's way here.

Of course if anyone has suggestions...pass them on.

Cheers
FT

I've downloaded files from "yousendit" and I select "open" for the file. After about five minutes (60 MB on DSL), I receive a MS error message that says that my Powertab program (?) can't open the file.....

My downloads are coming up as ADOBE files. And, I can't open them. My ADOBE program won't work with it.

Megaload seems to be the necessary evil I'm afraid. It sucks big time when you finally get to that file and then it drops off. I am on dial up too.

Megaupload is a piece if shit IMO. I feel like i'm driving down the Vegas strip when I download something from their site, WAY too many ads, flashing banners, popup windows sliding down from the top of the main window.... and slow downloads. Fortunately I use adblock plus and the NoScript extension for Firefox 1.5, no more ads on sites.
