I'm having problems downloading aircraft from this site.
I have used it before and have had no probs, but now can't download anything.
I have tried downloading on other sites and all seems to be fine.
Any suggestions anyone?

I've just tried a few files using an ordinary dial up connection. Each one was absolutely fine.
If you are having problems I suggest you do a tracert detailed here. That will indicate whether there is a network problem - the most likely cause.

Thanks for the advice.
Did a tracert and no problems showed up, so the site is fine, but I still can't download and as far as I know, no settings have changed on my PC. Just don't understand it, I have never had problems before just since the past few days.
Thanks for trying

I think I found the solution
Are you using any type of download accelerator, (Getright, DAP, etc.)
I always get a server busy error when using Getright, Try disabling it (In getright you right click icon-> options -> disable clipboard and click monitoring.)
For some reason Now simulation does not work with download accelarators, that worked before wich is a pain because I have dial up and ussualy have to dload in more then one session. I don't know anything about web editing but maybe something got messed up back there, can somebody please check?

now I cant seem to dload at all even with getright disabled.
It says server is busy every time or it just stays on the getting file information page or says "file unavailable or something like that"
Its starting to remind me of that "other" site as in the "All nodes busy" sign that makes my blood boil and my fingers numb from banging on F5
eww
