Hey,

You've encountered the "anti-bandwidth-wasting-download-accelerator" countermeasures. What happens is that you must wait 60 seconds between download attempts. This defeats the download accelerators that try to make multiple connections so the download server at the same time. What should happen is that when you click the local download link, the download should start automatically. If the attempt fails for some reason, there will be a link that appears a backup, but you may have to wait the 60 second attempt time.

I hope this helps. Good luck and have fun!! ^_^

Thank you very much!

Is there a way I can download with a program such as Gozilla?
(Only because it allows me to resume the download from pauses/stops.

Hey,

Though I have never used download accelerators, you may be able to configure your browser to use Gozilla automatically when attempting to download a file. Other browsers, such as Mozilla/Firebird, have the pause/resume functions built into the browser so you don't have to use an external tool to do it.

Hey,

Hmmmm. The site does support resuming, at least it's supposed to. [Thinks to self: Perhaps I missed a header or something.] I'm sure that the code probably needs work done to it. Sorry...
