Using a number of posts to allow downloads is something I could have used last year. I had downloads open on a site and a group from china downloaded 1 file 1000x in a 24 hr period and I got a bill for $500 from my site host.

Right now what I have been doing is make things so members only can access any download and their acct has to be approved by an admin first.

yeah, i understand that so well. Some people get upset but it's to protect the website from dying. I hope more people understand why these steps are taken.

I don't understand why $12.99+ is such a big deal anyway? IMO, The subscription mod is well worth that and more!

Ouch!!

I'll have freebies on my site but majority downloads you'll have to buy a subscription (still waiting patiently for Mark's help Laughing ) for. And my hosting company is providing me with information so those who want the freebies don't suck my bandwidth to death like it seems what happened to you. Host I'm with is very Cool and helpful.

I hope that doesn't ever happen to you again. Kinda sucks there are people out there like that who like to ruin something good.
