today i went to download another file from this site (soldiers of WWII demo[or similarly named]) and after sifting through some of the servers that wouldn't work i managed to download it from the greece sever but at aver slow rate(4kbs-13kbs avg) and it's over 200megs so it took a little while and once again the file was corrupted
this is no the first time it's happened and i'm coming across it more often (paticularly the UK server) (both problems) is there some trick to fixing the file (winrar can never do it)
is anybody else getting this problem?
also thought i'd let the administration know

Well, it happened to me a few times also, but I did not want to rant about it, because as we all know everything here is for free! ;)

While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

I have never had any of the above problems unless the mirrors were close to full. Post a link so I can see what you are talking about

You're not a true Gh fan if you go somewhere else for downloads... tsk tsk.
Anyway, I haven't been getting these problems lately...

i know every thing free but it does help if you let the admins know because it's getting more common and i don't go any where else for my downloads unless i'm desperate
