I don't use a mass download program (anyway I'm on a steenking dialup and don't have the bandwidth anyway), but there are some sites out there that think I do. I use a proxy server though (my use is to get rid of blinking gif animations) and I have to disable headers in order to download from some sites. Does Propsbuild check for the headers from massdownloaders? I've heard that the mass downloaders change stuff so often that you can't keep up with them anyway for identification (and people like me get locked out if they don't know what to do). But they have disabled the right-click menu at Propsguild and 3DModelworld...and that means we can't take the thumbnails with the downloads. Easy enough to disable Javascript (though it's a pain to enable/disable all the time) but disabling the right click doesn't do squat to stop the mass downloaders so I don't understand why they did it? Anybody know? All I can tell from checking source is that a message is put up about not using mass downloaders, but I don't get that message when I right-click...I just get nothing. Those sites are all slow even without the bandwidth stealing. They force a reload when you hit the backbutton and that takes some bandwidth too. When PW and Fairywoods do an update, you have a couple thousand legitimate people all grabbing about 4-6 files. That's a ton of bandwidth used and even without the mass downloaders I would think they'd have problems. They really need to have their stuff available from more sources.

I'm delighted there is going to be a Vicky2!! Those who don't already have Vicky (yes, there are some) can start out by using their investment in P4 fem wear and still retain the wonderful Vicky head and head morphs and purchase stuff for the 100% Vicky side as their pocketbooks will allow. And those who already have Vicky can still use everything they have and expect more to come! Their investment in all the stuff for Vicky is still good.
