Hi. I am trying to download the ClearOne theme for SysMetrix.

My problem is that when it first asked me to register, I used an account found on bugmenot.com because I didn't want to be arsed with registering. I get an error, "As an active user of WinCustomize.com who has downloaded over 50 megabytes of content from our site, we ask that you help support WinCustomize through the purchase of either a WinCustomize Subscription or by registering a Stardock product."

So then I'm like, okay, fine, I'll register a new account, obviously this one has been used by tons of people and exceeded its limit. I register the new account, validate it, etc., then try to download the file again. Same exact error. So I am thinking that my IP address has been marked as a 50MB+ user even though I've yet to download anything at all.

Is there a workaround? I'd like to contribute to the community by rating and reviewing skins, submitting stuff, etc., but there's no point if I can't download anything.

Thanks,
SD

Clear your browsers cache and cookies. Problem resolved. WHAW!


Really? If that works, I'll be so happy. Thank you for the suggestion!

Do not post instructions on how to avoid download limits.

Donald Zuchowski... explaining how to circumvent the download limit on WinCustomize is not acceptable.
