FF appears to have been clearly displaying their efforts to screw with free downloaders.
I suspect this has been receiving a wide response so they view as opportunity
Yea, there was a "dashboard" update or whatever and a bunch of my settings had been put back to default. Had to go change them to where I wanted again...

'Premium Account' still needed for at least Disc 9.

Grabbed the others already so nit sure about those ones...
Thanks for letting me know. No idea why - just checked and the "premium only" option is still off.

Please try these links (they should be the same as I posted in the OP) and see if any of them work:



I didn't do anything differently so I don't know what would cause a problem.

Let me know - thanks :)

Can't get links from 7 to open, and when they do, it's says '5 hours' to complete.
Try again for me in the morning - they've been doing updates and crap it seems like. Wouldn't be surprised if FF is just all around acting fucky right now.

I saw on some other threads people that uploaded to FF had some of the same issues recently, so I'm pretty certain it's not on my end (literally no idea what else to do).

Let's see if it resolves. Thank you for staying patient!!

Sorry to report still the same.. strange.
Still grateful though.
Maybe I'll try in the morning to see if it's system works better

I logged out of my account and downloaded free no problem (except that its slow as shit). I used to use FF free years ago and it wasnt this bad - damn, sorry guys :(

This is dumb. I'm almost certainly going to reupload to MEGA this week now. I will keep the FF links but give MEGA a 2nd (proper!) shot and have both as options.

The "hard" part in doing this was that I had to plug in an external drive with a power cable, but the plugs in my room are in bad spots where I can't leave my laptop unsupervised (cat could knock it over, etc), so I could only upload when I was home, pretty much, and able to be near the computer. And I drive dump truck from 6 am to roughly 6 pm every day during the week, so, yea not much time, lol

But I've got everything uploaded on my computer now so I'll just go ahead and try MEGA one more time since I don't have to screw with that drive anymore! :)

Earlier this week, it wasn't this slow - not sure why this has changed.

Right?!

I think it was yesterday that I had to change my settings back to "non premium allowed" for downloads, so I bet there is maintenance stuff going on.

There have been times with sites where I've had to wait a few days and try again. Maybe busy servers etc. Who the hell knows, ya know?

Same thing this morning.
Server overload, or something similar.
Tried one file, and it took about 2 hours to complete.
Something changed, as before, it would open a download box, but now it goes through the 'countdown' process.
Right? :/ Bummer. I'm gonna start upping it to MEGA again. I'll post a folder link to the whole thing once I have it all up.
