686084 2008-07-07 06:58:00 Whenever I try to download any of the Flight Simulator skins from flightsim.co.nz, it links to another site called avsim.net. I registered like it told me to, but when I click on the Download button I get a message like "Could not connect. FTP server may be too busy". I have tried using IE, Firefox, Opera and Safari at many different times, but the same thing keeps happening.

I would appreciate any help.

UPDATE: I just tried disabling PeerGuardian, and as soon as I did that, the file downloaded perfectly . Guess you must not have that installed .

Thank you very much for your quick response . :)

Some sites though require this to allow certain actions to be performed - Eg: Downloading.
