Megaupload error message

[Cookie]

Trying to grab something from Megaupload (completely legit, sadly) and it keeps giving me this:

We have detected an elevated number of requests from your IP address.

Which is naturally complete b****cks because all I've tried to do is access the link once.

Anyone seen it before?

Yeah, it's something that's been implemented to stop the same file being downloaded over and over from forum links, unless you're a premium member.

Is the file something that is probably quite popular?

Nope

I've since discovered it's something to do with o2/Be IP's being added to the IWF's pervert filter

Thankfully there's a workaround

Ohhh, noice, I'm o2!

I'd read what I'd posted elsewhere, so just assumed it was correct.
