The mediafire link does not work (at least it hasn't worked correctly for me).

Personally this is more like the "getting hit over the head" room for me.

Correction - Its only the install disk that won't download correctly.


Just checked... all files are downloading fine here... :)

Firstly I haven't a scooby doo about what your saying "geocities" whasat !!!

It was the first 'DIY' style webhosting service around back in the nineties and 2000's.  Think Etsy, but more useless :lol:.  In other words, he was having a go at your web design :D

All files on my my sites have to be downloaded from my account on mediafire as that's the only way it works with sitemaker... :)

The only space I have for storage on my sites is used by any gfx that I have to upload for use on my sites. So I don't see what your point is, I have uploaded them and almost 10,000 other files to mediafire (which my site members have been happily using for quite some time now with no complaints) and made them available to easily find and download... :)

So what is the pointless point your trying to make here... :confused:
He's trying to say that you aren't actually HOSTING the files, you are simply POINTING at them.  It suggests you aren't really the 'offending' party, MediaFire is.

No, the install disk does not download. Again, all others, fine. Not install.

Me websites aren't designed I just cobble them together in a way that keeps me happy... :)

As I've said with the SiteMaker package it's the only way to make stuff available to download by using the various link thingies to link to other accounts I have (in this case Mediafire)... :)

At the end of the day, it's the only way I can do it on my sites and I'm the one who uploaded them for download so the only "offending party" is me but to be honest I'm not offended... :D

No he's not. He's already pulled this shit before and had to make a choice: a) remove the disk images off his site or b) pull the link to his site out of his signature and not talk about it on AO. He choose A. The situation isn't going to change. The only reason he's pulling this crap again is to troll the site. End of story. Why do people fall for this shit?


Why is it important to highlight that ? Why bother !

Don't you mean all six (there six disks listed). And, again , no the install disk won't download. I've got the other five. How could it be "my end"?

Wow... 3.1 is flying out the door like hotcakes... :)

Amazing how popular this stuff is when it's available else where but folk claim nobody wants another place to download it from... :)

Must be the copyright mafia getting theirs before they complain and have it shut down for everyone else... ;)

Sorry Iggy but once again all versions of the install disk are downloading fine here. I've downloaded each of them 3 times myself since you mentioned it and they are downloading without any problems... :)

So I've no idea why you can't download them, perhaps one of the copyright mafia will be able to tell you where you can buy them instead... :)

Apologies Franko, can't say I like MediaFire (as it took me about 2 dozen attempts to get the install disk to download), but it has worked.
OK everybody. Whether you believe it or not, Franko has made them available AND they have been downloaded.
Report away everybody.

Yeah I wish I hadn't picked mediafire it's a bit slow and flakey at times but I don't fancy uploading nearly 10,000 files again to another site... :)

Think I'll report meself now just for the hell of it... :D

They can always be re-posted and I don't have to link to it to mention amigauk.com.

BTW - Why is this issue important to you Staf? Surely you don't believe that Bill McEwen deserves to be well treated?
The original AmigaInc in Washington still hasn't paid off its bad debts.

I really don't understand what koaftder & Fats hope to achieve. Maybe they think that if they stop people from copying Amiga software then the clock will turn back 20 years or so ?
Perhaps all those software houses that abandoned the Amiga in 1994 will change their minds & start supporting it again ? ROFLMAO ;-)
