Hurrah! No more password protection in the downloads section! (Hey that rhymed...)
I have a file management system in place now that SHOULD take care of issues with downloading. With the new system, I can limit users' downloads to three per day. After three, you have to wait until the next day to be able to download again. I think it's a good way to conserve my bandwidth without this whole password silliness. What a HUGE relief that I won't have to respond to all those emails anymore!
Maybe now that I won't have to worry about bandwidth so much, I can add more episodes (I have plenty of space, just not enough bandwidth to keep up with everybody).
EVERYBODY CHEER! YAY!! I'm so happy ^^;

If you want, I can test if it really cuts off the connection after three downloads. =)

Will it work on people who are on an ISP like AOL that uses dynamic IP's? A person on AOL can have a different IP each time they click on a page.
Now someone like me who has paid extra to her provider for a static IP, then I'd be dead as a doornail. XD
Maybe someone here who uses AOL or another such provider should test your system?

Hell yeah! now I can download 3 StarS eps each day without worrying if I'm DLing them too frequently ^^; edit: ok...I've just attempted to Download eps 190(twice) and 191 (at different times of course) and I've run accross a problem. The download started alright, but at like 10% it just stopped  I tried again and now it says I've had my 3 downloads, but the downloads weren't completed for some reason |

There's a post about it in the general board. The error didn't have anything to do with the file restrictions. |
