ftp software: my 2 euro cents...
by Chain Reaction 20 Jan '02

20 Jan '02

Dear Downloaders, As an alternative to more specific ftp software you could try the ftp function within Windows Commander. I've used it for many years (leeching many sites ;->), and it has never let me down. Try it if you have WC; I hope this 'll work for at least some of you...

Fwd: Pomme Fritz re-examined
by Simon Bennett 19 Jan '02

19 Jan '02

>It occurred to me today that the Orb's little 'Hah, bet you didn't see >this coming' album - for stretches, at least - sounds less like a musical >composition unto itself and more like the weird stuff that they typically >pop quite low in the mix of their tracks to make you blink and go 'What >the bloody hell was that?'. The difference is that it's stripped of a >contextual, conventional track and left relatively bare.

Area One download failure
by Noraa Selim 19 Jan '02

19 Jan '02

I'm embarassed to say that I cannot get this to work. Somewhere around 20hours into this the streambox hits rock bottom and the download goes from 20-40 kbps to 0. It then begins to attempt to restart 5 times and just sits there. (Even after my second attempt) and then just sits there like a dumb shit. I think the Realmedia file has a stream glitch in it or something that prevents me from getting the damn thing. I'm actually really pissed off right now as I stayed up all night for this hoping i could figure it out. Fuck realmedia. I attempted to do this for the list as a favor and because I wanted it too. Will someone else attempt this? http://www.focus247.com/ No peace out _____________________________________________________________ Get email for your site ---> http://www.everyone.net

This Weekend

I will be out of town this weekend and I will not return till Sunday evening. My FTP will be up all weekend long. Enjoy :) RMStringer _________________________________________________ Tomorrow may never come, Moutains clash in the sun.

The sun catches its shadow.
