Flashget and PMDG

Do I need to enter my customer number and Password into my Flashget download manager?Pete

Not if you use the URL in the EMail - I left Net Transport running all night with no joy. Obviously the more you try the better your chances, but I think you are looking at lottery odds here, I have been thrashing away at the URL for about 30hrs now, I must have hit it well over 10000 times and there is nothing happening. I shall try changing the user agent I think.Dudley Brooke

You guys should be aware that user requests in that amount are creating EXTRA LOAD to the servers, which makes the chance to get a free slot more unlikely.I would highly recommend to ease up a bit on those download-managers, i am not using one as well!!!!Best regardsHolger DallmeyerEDDK

In another thread, Robert indicated that, during the course of the day, software would be installed to act against download managers retrying continously.Personally, I'd hoped the server would start to become more accessible (this being a working day) but in fact it appears to be getting worse. I suppose people are letting their machines at home run download managers while they are at work. Yesterday I got through to the downloadlink page every once in a while, today I haven't seen even that at all.Out of curiosity, I wonder what percentage of users have succesfully downloaded so far?Best,Martijn
