I've just tried several FS98 pages as examples - 100% of files I tested were OK. As they should be - nothing has changed & the FS98 aircraft (incl. Props of course) have been available for years with litterally millions of downloads over that time.

I would suggest you look at

1. Firewall settings/type
2. ISP connectivity
3. Browser settings

If you would like others to verify a particular file link please give it here & someone can try it for themselves.

Thanks

The file at the top of page 44?

This is the link...and it works for me: ftp://63.217.28.218/1props/ml-b56tc.zip

Could it be a browser problem because this is served from the FTP server?
