Hey guys, Im having some trouble downloading with rapidshare. I have tried numerous occassions today and yesterday but its still not working. First of all Im not a premium user and when I get to the page where you have to enter the code i am greeted with a message saying 'you have entered too many incorrect codes, please re try in a few minutes'. I haven't downloaded anything in about a week and I cannot recall entering an incorrect code, yet lately im always presented with this message. Is any one experiencing the same problem, or know a way around it other than becoming a premium user? thanks steve

Does anyone know if this is because I'm using the Free option and thus would have to get a Premium account or not?

[..] Ah ok, cheers - I appreciate that a lack of payment isn't going to make the service great, but a) I can't get a Premium account because I have no means by which to pay and b) I have an inherent distrust for paying over the internet (or in fact, by any means other than face to face), misplaced as it may be, so best plan would be to wait a day or 2 and try again? And to quote Dan, lol. Even he's dropped the Slane gag lol! At least, he appears to have...
