Hi everyone, Got a problem here and as said in the title of the thread i can't fownload form www.flightsim.com ; Sad .

Before you ask: Yes i turned of my firewall and Yes i have tried different files from different sections.

Could it be because i have FreshDownload installed????

I do not even try to download from that site anymore.
Try www.avsim.com
You will have to register but it is free and has a ton of downloads. I hardly ever have a problem downloading from there.
Flightsim is a great site but it is almost impossable to download from. Unless you pay for it.
I sometimes use that site to get ideas as what to look for at avsim. Sorry but it is true.
Avsim's huge library can be a little tricky trying to find something but with the wildcard use you can usually find what you are looking for. I like it when every now & then they will allow you to down load the entire list of there library. It makes things a lot easier to find

Stiz you had best email them and tell them the problem Wink There is an address for download problems on their second page I think...

If you have Windows Service Pack 2 installed, the security setting may be preventing you from downloading from there.  Make sure you have them allowed...
