Some of you earlier may have noticed the following:
The servers got so smashed that they started rejecting connections - I'm sorry about that. We provision servers (and remove them) on demand else our hosting becomes quite expensive for what is a free download. When I started seeing the alerts come through I provisioned more servers to the pool to cope with the downloads, things should be stable again.
ProMods v2.26 actually got launched a week ago. ScuL is away travelling at the moment so didn't have a chance to send out the final batch of newsletters (I didn't quite know this at the time) and so I removed a bunch of servers thinking the rush was over. I have not seen any complaints and it only appears a handful of downloads were refused so to those who were having problems give it another go and it should be fine.
Thanks for your patience.

Hi,
have you tried disable the virus scanner while downloading?
Some virus scanner damages the archives while downloading.
Best regards,

The files are not damaged - I've verified this on the servers themselves. Likely your Antivirus meddling with things or if you're using a download manager then it is likely that. It is recommended by many if you're on Windows 10 to not install third party antivirus software and just use the built in Windows Defender.

Anyway, hope you got it sorted in the end.Flywheel wrote: ↑15 Feb 2018 16:14Too the admin l who answered my post, Please read what i said, i always get the paid version, i do not care about your tests, i have two new versions of WinRAR and &Zip, at least 6 times it says they are corrupted, please do not call me a liar.

Now i get two unsolicited emails from you good folk asking me to update your program, now if you don't care and and only come up with this drivel, please remove me from your mailing lists. I have been with ProMods from day one, but your forum sickens me. . I do not want any emails from you folk anymore, i hope you understand , that as good as ProMods is , life goes on. Goodbye, regards Peter

Right - I've put the file on another server. It has been checked and is valid and will be there for a short time for anyone with the first file problem to test. Please let me know.
