CPC-Power website. Ooops! Blocked!

[blackdalek]

I may have got carried away with downloading at CPC-Power website today, having downloaded about 15 .dsk images this morning.

It seems I've now been blocked from downloading any further files, being presented now with a picture of a policeman instead of the expected captcha box.

Is there a limit imposed on downloads per day due to limited bandwidth?

Anyway, I donated a few euro to the site to help with hosting costs in case that is the reason for the need to block downloads.

Hopefully it will return to normal soon.

I don't think there's a limit to the downloads. The police man appears if you type these characters in the wrong order though. Maybe that's what you did?

I'm pretty sure I've also downloaded more than 15 files in a row in the past, without problems.

it accepted the 3 letters I typed in every time. Anyway, the policeman went away after a few hours, so not sure what happened if it wasn't blocking me for over-use

Maybe is looking your IP try reset the router(change your IP).

Does get a bit tiresome having to do the verification for every download. Annoying when you are grabbing multiple versions of a game to try and get one working with an M4, etc.

True, I'm sure there are much better anti-leech solutions...
