I've clicked those links, hit the big download file button, Then reached the "Your download link is ready" page.

Files are now saving to my computer :)

Please try again!

I tried the first link & it works.

I presume he's(or she) is trying to "save link as" to a specific location on the 1st download button instead of the 2nd, the 1st download button just cue's up the download.

I'm having the same issue on any download I try here. I.E. gives me "The webpage cannot be found" and Firefox just kicks be back to the filelist. This is the first time I've tried to download anything since the site upgrade, so I'm not sure if that's the source or if there is another issue.

OK I found my problem, an issue with my network card which had been giving me issues with downloads stalling seems to have been stopping downloads on G.O.N. from even getting past the first download button, connecting to my modem via wireless has seemed to fix the issue.

thanks for your help Chucky i've got the older version (http://games.on.net/file/50144/) downloading hopefully it will auto update. there seem to be a lot of files at the top of the list with a 0 download count that have probably got a similar issue
