Post by HamiltonF1 » 26 Apr 2008, 19:35

Download links will only work if the referrer is 'http://f1zone.net' or 'http://www.f1zone.net'.
So check if your browser & download manager gets it correct.
Below is screen shot example of Flashget download manager.

again :p

For best result ...

Browser:
Firefox (Windows|Mac OS X|Linux): - http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html

Download Manager integration extension/plugin: - http://flashgot.net/

Download Manager
Windows:
Orbit - http://www.orbitdownloader.com/download.htm
or
Flashget - http://www.flashget.com/en/download.htm

I m not sure about this...
Linux:
http://www.krasu.ru/soft/chuchelo/
http://aria-rpm.sourceforge.net/
http://curl.haxx.se/
http://gnome.org/projects/gwget/
http://www.kde.org/
http://dfast.sourceforge.net/

Mac OS:
http://www.igetter.net/
http://www.yazsoft.com/

:thumbsup:

-------
Advance:

checking you firefox referrer setting
Sometime some extension or plugin might change this settings so take look @ them..

1 Type “about:config” in the location bar, and press return.
2 In the filter box, type “referer” and press return. This should leave you with one preference, network.http.sendRefererHeader. This should be set to "2" and status must be "default".If not then then follow 3rd step.
3 Right click on network.http.sendRefererHeader and select “Reset”

I'm very sorry, I don't want to disturb you with these downloading problems lol but I can't download anything with these programs. I've tried with ALL of them :S and I wanted to know if there's something which can block the downloading on my computer... I know that it could be boring for us to read what I'm saying and to help me, and I understand if you had not the time to. Thanks in advance, you do a brillant job ;)

HamiltonF1, You must download flashgot from where Zack said before.
I had the same problem, but after downloading flashgot everything is fine. You click the right button on the link, and click on Flashgot - download link, and it opens flashgets and downloads it correctly. But remember to delete all the previous attemps of downloading the file you have made before by deleting them from downloaded folder AND then, the deleted folder of flashget.

Thanks guys!

As an alternative you can user DownThemAll which is what I prefer to use.Enter the URL of the file after clicking Add URL in the manager and set the referrer to http://www.f1zone.net:

A very good download manager indeed , prefer it to Flashgot quite a bit.

I tried Orbit but it didn't work. However, when I tried with DownThemAll everything worked well, so thank you so much :)

EDIT : It worked just once with DownThemAll. I think some other members are having problems with downloads like me :s

Don't change anything in url/link ...rename after downloading.
