How long did it take you guys to receive the confirmation email after registering? It's been a couple of hours already and I haven't received mine yet.

It only took a few minutes for me to receive the email when I signed up yesterday.

At first i was giving them leeway in terms of all the people trying to log in and everyone massively uploading, but now on day 2 and still out, it is kind of not the best first impression. i did log in the site last night and registered and the email was instant but tried to upload a small pic but didn't happen, was "pending" forever so just canceled it. Hopefully Mega gets running smooth in the next week.

Haven't received the confirmation email either, using a hotmail email. Not even in my junk folder. Worked instantly for my gmail though. Starting to seem biased towards google. :o

However after getting a bad signup code: -9 when using the confirmation email's link, it says my password is invalid when logging in and when trying to re-register it says the email is already in use. :(

registered as soon as it was launched, didn't receive my confirmation to hotmail/outlook, assuming servers were being hammered i left it... tried again this morning, still nothing.

tried with gmail, instantly received my notification.

conclusion: outlook can't be trusted, i don't think i'll be using it for anything important.

Is it just me, or do you get better ul speeds using Firefox? With Chrome, max speeds were less then 40KBs. With FF, I get a normal of 60KBs up to 150KBs.

I'm getting the max my connection can upload at in Chrome, 105 KB/sec

After what when down with Megaupload who would store their personal files on this server? NOT ME!

That wasn't their fault it was the fault of the US government. If you want to complain do so with your vote and ask your government to stop bullying people at the behest of it's corporations.

      By Copernic · Posted

      Internet Download Manager (IDM) 6.43 Build 2 by Razvan Serea Internet Download Manager (IDM) is a tool to increase download speeds by up to 8 times due to its smart dynamic file segmentation technology. Unlike other download managers and accelerators, Internet Download Manager segments downloaded files dynamically during download process, and it reuses available connections without additional connect and login stages to achieve the best possible acceleration performance. Comprehensive error recovery and resume capability will restart broken or interrupted downloads due to lost connections, network problems, computer shutdowns, or unexpected power outages. All popular browsers are supported IDM integrates seamlessly into Google Chrome, FireFox, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Safari, Internet Explorer, Maxthon and all other popular browsers to automatically handle your downloads. You can also drag and drop files, or use Internet Download Manager from command line. The program supports proxy servers, ftp and http protocols, firewalls, redirects, cookies, authorization, MP3 audio and video content processing. IDM includes web site spider and grabber IDM downloads all required files that are specified with filters from web sites, for example all pictures from a web site, or subsets of web sites, or complete web sites for offline browsing. It's possible to schedule multiple grabber projects to run them once at a specified time, stop them at a specified time, or run periodically to synchronize changes. Easy downloading with one click When you click on a download link in a browser, IDM will take over the download and accelerate it. You don't need to do anything special, just browse the Internet as you usually do. IDM will catch your downloads and accelerate them. IDM supports HTTP, FTP, HTTPS and MMS protocols. Changes in Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 2: Resolved the problem that caused a "403 Forbidden" error when downloading some files Fixed a problem causing IDM download panel not to appear on some websites Fixed a bug that caused a crash when converting some TS files to MP4 Download: Internet Download Manager 6.43 Build 2 | 11.9 MB (Shareware) Links: Internet Download Manager Website | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware

      It's in Experimental (26H2). Settings->Windows Update->Windows Insider Program. Then a) select Experimental, b) below that, select "Advanced Options" (where you will see the three options for "Experimental" builds -> select 26H2 (name change from 25H2 is rolling; so might be 25H2)
