right click and save as
it worked for me! 8)

I don't use any download accelerators so it's all good!

Hey SarahtheBoring,

Yeah, generally "right-click->Save as..." works. You just have to make sure your current attempt is at least 60 seconds after your last attempt.

So basically, the idea for the local download is that it will download videos when you click on "save as...", but it won't work when you try to download it with a download accelerator like GetRight. Am I correct?

Hey,

[Ed McMahn] You are correct, sir...

Serv-u has a function much like what Phade is describing, you can ban people for a given time for connecting more than once in a few seconds etc. (of course phade's sounds a little more precise than the 'general' serv-u setting)

Morons on modems still try to dap me (I allow two connections from each ip) ... funny stuff...

As usual, nicely done Phade!

Speed is great for me I'm getton 70k! (could prob go higher, but I don't want to draw attention to my bandwidth at college).

Yes, speed is nice and fast. 150+kb/sec for me! I love DSL.

OK, good

I got about 102K at the start, but it's ticking down slowly - still quite fast so far.

Finally, I shall see Material Girl...

It's going along nicely for me. Nice how you banned off download accelerators. (I got the .php document a few times due to the habit of using Getright...

)

It's going well. Hopefully the Local option will become available to everyone before too long.
