Default Problem Downloading

I found this site from a friend and I must say that I'm amazed by the games that are here! My problem is that I can't download any of them. For some reason it just times out. I've tried through Firefox and Explorer just incase the browser was the issue but I still had the same problem. Should I switch computers? Any suggestions?

See if there's any difference on another machine, preferably using a different connection as well.

Download server is not accessible recently. No idea when it will be back.
Sorry for inconvenience!

This sort of thing happens sometimes, other complaints won't help anybody apolloswan.
The best solution to prevent hundreds of topics like this, is to create an announcement on site (As russ did last time).

Unhappy another busted download

I found this site when looking for information on MegaTraveller - I had the original DOS game Megatraveller 1, did not know they had a 2 out - tried to download either and neither will download. Hoping it can be fixed soon

As Romano stated, the download server is currently not functioning. It probably won't be very long before it's back on-line.

This has happened before, and took a couple days to fix. Hopefully this time it will be done faster.
Until then, there's nothing any of us can do but wait.

The FTP server is working again but I am still getting the Forbidden error when trying to download Alien Carnage.

EDIT: Working now.
