Isnt that the truth but it gets buried under the same issues that keep repeating themselves over and over and gets buried alive

Looks like they re-launched their site 3/11/13 and some are having issues downloading

The solution -

If you have download issues, please open a support ticket and include a description of the problem along with details of your browser, download manager and version and the full URL of the file you are trying to download.

Due to feedback from Premium members since our site relaunch, we have made improvements to our download process to provide better support for download managers, and to ensure that Premium download links are valid for longer and do not time out.

Short of having Crocodile Dundee give a 15 minute dissertation as a
troupe of horn blowers blast away......dunno how much more obvious
that check box could be, being directly below the button one has to
click on to begin a download as a free user lol. I've said this about 15
times through out VEF, including at least once if not more in this thread.
I personally downloaded that so called download manager, ran it through
4 different virus and malaware programs, and came up with nothing. It's
nothing more than a way for FF to earn more money from the idiots that
created it, and nuttin' else. It's a one time use thing, and doesn't actually
do anything other than scare the bejeezus out of folks whose virus programs
are set to go off when the wind blows. There's not a thing wrong with Norton,
(other than being too expensive! lol) but it and any other virus program, would
prefer that anyone that uses their product, yank their ethernet cables out of their
modems, and not plug it back in until the time comes to re-up with them again lol
Viruses are nasty critters, there's no doubt about that, but other than being annoying,
that check box is nothing to be worried about, even if you do happen to accidentally
download it.

A few pointers on how to DL from FF with a few less hassles, would be:

Sign up for a free account with them, and alot of those ads you've been seeing
will disappear, as well as you picking up a few kbs in speed. If you're not keen
on some site knowing your email address, create one somewhere else to use, the
same as you probably did when joining VEF lol.

Try using Jdownloader. It doesn't always work with FF, because the JD folks
seem to have a problem figuring out the FF scripts and such. When JD does
have them worked out though, you bypass having to even go to the FF website.

Alot of FF users that upload to them, activate their traffic share there, which basically
turns every free user into a premium downloader. Each premium member of FF, is
allotted a certain amount of gigs per month for trafficshare, so when someone does
activate it, it ends up getting used up pretty quickly. Someone's trafficshare allotment,
resets at the beginning of each month, so the best time for free users wanting to dl a
bunch of FF links, would be at the stroke of midnight, the morning of the 1st each
month. If you're lucky, that person will have trafficshare turned on, and you can
download the same as anyone that's been actually paying for their premium accounts,
but only from whichever users have TF turned on though. Best hurry though when ya
find some trafficshared links though, cause they use up real fast. My 100 gig allotment,
usually only lasts a few hours if that when I flip my tf switch on.

There's another trick or two you can do also, but my dinner's gettin' cold!

Good luck Greenie

I am a free member and I am experiencing problems with uploading rar movies files to FF. The file will load up to 99% then stop loading. I don't know why this should be ?

Any ideas would be appreciated.

I often get this, but I believe it is my browser. Small files (less than 30 MB) are OK, but large ones never complete.

I stick with FTP, but as a free user that won't be an option for you.

**Oswald** · February 16th, 2014, 12:16 PM

I was wondering if I didn't rar the movie files and didn't have them password protected it would make it possible for them to be uploaded ?

Sorry to say, but from personal experience - I know that won't solve the problem. My video files (which were not password protected or 'rar'ed) weren't being accepted either - and that was as a premium account holder. After using the drag and drop uploader in the browser, a file would get to 99% uploaded and then ..... just hang.

I eventually solved the problem by using FTP - and haven't looked back since, but I believe that is not an option for free users. Sorry not to be more help!

**GailFan** · February 23rd, 2014, 11:19 PM

I kinda glad to hear you guys are also having the 99% problem, makes me realise it wasn't just me!

Like I said, I stick with FTP, but it is slightly slower than HTTP POST.

However, yesterday I posted a bunch of small files (the largest was 28 MB) by browser, and they all went through fine.

**lagerlout** · March 24th, 2014, 02:51 AM

Been having problems downloading from them for the last 8 hours or so, anyone else or is it my end. Tried browser JDownloader2 & MYd0w*l0*der
