Title: Fixing a Yahoo lockout PDQ.
Post by: mattylad on August 27, 2009, 10:20:18 AM
Hello, just thought I'd mention that, when someone gets a Yahoo lockout for downloading too much too quick
its generally easily fixed quickly by rebooting your router (when not on a fixed IP).

I thought it might be an idea to add that to your FAQ about lockouts.

Doing this works with the Firefox Freecycle plugin so I cnt see why it wont work with PG Offline.

I'm currently trying it out to archive one of my groups before it closes.

Hi,

I think this has been discussed before on this forum but its a good point to mention again.

I'm not too keen to put it on my FAQ as undoubtedly its a violation of your Yahoo TOS. So, officially, I really disapprove of such behaviour. Unofficially...

Cheers,

Wilson.
