I didn't even know the JJ2 demo was on Download.com.

Yes indeed. What a better way to celebrate Easter.

Happy Easter everyone. =)

Welcome back Hazel-Rah!

I love download.cm, it's a wonderful site and it definately isn't full of malware and ads!

Stop bringing up old beef and stay on topic.

It's nice to know JJ2 is still getting a little publicity out there.

Odin Apr 11, 2006 01:09 PM

Welcome back Hazel-rah.

And nice to see JJ2 is still appearing here and there.

Some of you are really (-) for going out completely offtopic and bashing people for no reason, my two cents.


Anyways, not too interested, but reminds me to play at least a bit of jj2 during the easter break.

Derby: Filter bypass removal. Let the filter do its work.

I think it would be more suitable to play TSF, as that as three easter levels to play through. If you don't have TSF, then just download the demo from Hazes Hideout.

The demo doesn't include Easter levels.

Of course. Download.com is the worst place to get ANYTHING.

I guess that demo don't have correct listserver-keys... Wee, no new users.

Have you discovered fileplanet, with its queues? Or even worse, sites which only allow one download per IP? Those are really useful when you're behind a heavily-used transparent proxy server (e.g. that of a major ISP). The worse ones deliver IP bans for multiple connections, simply because some idiot wrote a DoS program disguised as a download accelerator (extra connections does not necessarily mean more speed but always means more server load).

Fileplanet, with its queues, is usually fine because there are multiple queues. Just try again in a few minutes. Do you really need that download now?

Sites which only allow one download per IP should usually clean out their list to get rid of such proxy IPs every so often. If not, then there are some workarounds.

As for IP bans for multiple connections, you shouldn't be doing that. It's unethical, especially if you have a fast connection (you already have a fast connection, wait a while), and it doesn't work if you have a slower one (e.g. dial-up).

All these things may cause problems, but in my opinion Download.com is a horrible, horrible place, every other download has some sort of malware attached to it, and because a lot of people use download.com without knowing this, a lot of people get infected.
