Yep... This is what I get trying to download the first file of PM 2.63 just once...
Sorry! You've been blocked.

You've sent too many requests to this service which has upset something, or somebody in this universe and now you're blocked for your actions.
There's more to that message, but I'm sure whoever wrote it is aware of that. In any case, one request is hardly too many... Specially since I only did as a test. I'm a non-Steamer, and as such, limited to PM 2.33.

The block will expire automatically after a few hours.

  1. How many files were you trying to download at the same time?
  2. Do you use any download accelerators or download manager?
  3. Are you using a shared or mobile Internet connection?
  4. What web browser are you using?

I thought of all that, Josh. I actually started to write a post similar to yours, but decided to test the download link first. It's different than it used to be, and as I wrote above, I got that message from only trying it once... Just trying to be helpful. Image

Some browsers try to open 3, 4 or even more simultaneous download streams at the same time. The system then recognises this as abuse and blocks the user for a few hours.
The only way to avoid is trying different browsers or trying to figure out why your browser is downloading so many files at the same time
