Updating windows = no simfiles
So not too long ago I updated Windows. With this big update came this new security center thing, which is ridiculous. I don't even see what it really does...Also with it came an improved version of IE. Apparently Microsoft has seen how much everybody likes Firefox, so they copied them somewhat. IE now has a pop up blocker shockingly similar to Firefox, and apparently that's not all that's changed. I believe whatever makes Firefox unable to download .zips from the FFR Simfile database is now a part of IE as well. I used to be able to DL things just fine, but since updating I get empty .zip files. If anybody else has this problem, do tell, and as for the rest of you: DON'T UPDATE WINDOWS.

So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright. And I write the blog for their website. Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O |

That's because the database is down right now.
