Title: Download sites (MediaFire MegaUpload RapidShare) reloading page no download fix
Post by: jr2 on March 23, 2012, 10:23:33 am

So, was trying to download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?giammjdetjz (Intel AHCI after XP already installed enabling tweak), and MediaFire was just reloading the page instead of giving me the download.  Starting to get ticket at MediaFire... Googled it and found this: http://sakurahana.com/forum/download-support/24090-problem-download-sites-mu-mediafire-etc.html

They suggested it was a crappy ISP.  Well, HughesNet, so yeah... so I thought, I'll try a proxy.  I copied the URL for the MediaFire download link into http://www.hidemyass.com (free proxy site), waited a bit longer for the proxy to handle the request, and, hey presto!  It worked like a charm.

Hope this helps someone!  ;)

So I should follow your precedent and turn this into a discussion of flat-rate versus progressive tax on corporate income, right?  :p

-shrugs- The first topic covers everything that someone looking for help with this would want to know, so if you want to we could also entertain them with a discussion whilst they download their file(s), now that they can.  :D
