Hi, I tried to download Port La Forks and a couple of other towns through MTS, but I keep getting a 403 forbidden code. Do you know what s up with that?
Thanks,
Jeff

That's usually caused by your trying to download more than three things at once - if you're not doing it deliberately, you may be using a download manager which is using 3+ connections. We don't allow this since some download managers take up tens, even hundreds of slots simultaneously, thereby preventing other users from downloading. :)

Had to do them one at a time, but even so when one was selected and I got the 403 err I had to keep going back and trying. Now I hope I can get it all un compressed and installed to working order.

Occasionally connections can get "stuck" open, and you have to wait for them to time out - it's a pain, but it's unavoidable. Glad you got the files in the end. :)
