    Okay a few people have had problems with downloading off this site.
    Let me first point out that it DOES work, it requires that your computer or internet isn't overly restrictive but it's definitly possible. We're not here because we're assholes who just wants to make a profit.

    Notice:
    If you don't know how to use rar files then read this tutorial on winrar.

    Cookies
    you MUST have cookies enabled for our site, if you must block cookies then block them on a per cookie level, not the site as a whole, if you do this we can't properly verify that you came from our site and not someone elses site trying to leech our files.

    Internet Explorer
    IE likes to sometimes block downloads from sites, and generally being a pain in the butt, plus it renders the site somewhat slow. We highly recommend that you switch to either FireFox or Opera Both are excellent quality free browsers.

    Download Managers
    Download managers SHOULD work; however, if you're tried everything above then try, as a last resort, to turn your download manager off and use regular, normal downloading.

    You're charged twice if you load the script twice. So if you clicked the download link and IE blocked it then you still initiated it. That's why you shouldn't use IE to download, it's utter shit.

    All the files are in the .rar format. You need something like Winrar: http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm To be able to un-zip it. That should solve your problems.

    I'm guessing it asked you which files to affiliate it with. You should put pretty much everything there, but as i can't see it (did it a loooong time ago) i only recommend '.zip', and '.rar'. That way you can extract PD. Happy playing.

    OR you're blocking header information so we can't verify that you're coming from our site and not someone trying to leech our files.

    The games you download here act just like your normal game, so you can take it to wifi.

    Also try googling the file extension, you might learn something new by yourself.

    vegytek: There's probably a problem with the referrer for the requested files. Our admin is currently away on a short vacation. The problem will be resolved once he arrives in case our other admin loonylion isn't able to do it first.

    hellomoto: Will check up on the said problem. Check back for an update on the solution in a day (or less, if you're lucky :p). Btw, please refrain from requesting technical help in this thread. The rest of the forum has been made available for this purpose - please stay on topic.
