Some websites are not accessible...

Postby Darren » Sat Jul 17, 2004 4:50 am

When Free Download Manager is installed, some websites I frequent become unaccessible. As an example, http://www.zophar.net returns the below error...

ERROR
The requested URL could not be retrieved

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.zophar.net/

The following error was encountered:

Access Denied.
Access control configuration prevents your request from being allowed at this time. Please contact your service provider if you feel this is incorrect.

There are a few more sites like this. When I uninstall FDM, everything returns to normal. If I install it again, it breaks access to those sites again. I ran an ID check on my browser, and for Browser Version, it shows Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; Free Download Manager). What's up with that?
Needless to say, I uninstalled FDM and reinstalled mass Downloader. Everything is now back to normal.

No I think :-(

User agent is still available and I know no setting in FDM to unselect this point!

Yes, the Browser ID (User-Agent) String problem has been fixed. It shows FDM at the end of the string, but is implemented differently and does not cause any more webpage access errors. Thanks for addressing this problem. If I find anything else, I'll let it be known. 8)
