I hate it when blogs put links in comments. What a hassle. Then, to add insult to injury,
they password protect the RAR files. So. I have to write down the password, or leave a window open. So here I am downloading a bunch of files. and I have to remember which password from which blog goes where. I mean..come...on. What is being protected here? Yeah. My life is rough people.
So True My Friend. Ican never find the download link when they placed in the comment section. I dont get it either.
ReplyDeleteWell, I wondered that too, But was too afraid to ask! Or, Figured it was something simple I was overlooking...And I'd look Less Bright than I already am...
ReplyDeleteIf you Password Protect it, then Give Out the Password???
A few years back, I learned this the "hard way" (couldn't extract several files), so my advise will be: always do a copy & paste of the URL from where you got the file! That will save you a lot of hassle :)
ReplyDeleteI also have a simpletext file where I keep passwords. But every once in a while, I forget to copy 'em over. It does drive me buggy. But then I figure I can complain and get a full refund, so I feel better.

Following up on Toxxy's comment.. I also copy/paste the page url, or the permanent link URL into a text file, along with the download link for each file.. then if I find out that a password is needed, I can find that page quickly and find the password.
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely true, and some bloggers even hide the link so you have to look for it, it´s like a game for them I think. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeletepower pop criminals (a very interesting blog by the way) password protect but their password is in fact.. password..so i somehow remember that everytime...
ReplyDeleteother than that i agree with tony...like shaving..it's boring

So what is the purpose then? I don't get it either.
