I have DSL and have experienced NO problems with any other web sites excite this forum and the Members Area today.

I try to download the 1.3 patch and the blue progress bar never gets past 25% of the way before it freezes and completely stops.

Will someone do something so that we can get these patches downloaded????????????

Seems to be a DDOS attack by downloading the patch.

Assuming you've not already begun downloading by now, try this...

Instead of just clicking the link and waiting, try a "Right click/Save target as" on that link. I saw the same thing the first time I tried a download. Right click/Save target as got me to downloading immediately.

Bear in mind, the server is REALLY bogged down as I have a 5 megabit cable connection and the best I mustered was just over 20kb/sec for throughput. So if you're determined to get it now, its going to be slow.

Try the right click though, it should save you some trouble.

Yes, no joy here as yet. I guess it's better probably to wait a while. As a Brit, I must say, though, shouldn't all you chaps across the pond be too busy voting to have time for downloading? Where are your priorities? Yes, I know....

You make me feel better about the 69K/s throughput I had when D/L it around 1AM

Guess now that words out things are bogged down indeed..
