Ok, so I've been DL'ing movies from http://www.collegehumor.com for a couple weeks now.
A few nights ago I realized on every video I clicked on to DL it gives me the "page cannot be displayed" error, for every single video. At first I thought the server was just down for a bit.
Went back there again today, and still can't DL anything, but a friend I work w/ was downloading movies from there at work today, so I know it's not the servers anymore.
Then I went to http://sickjokes.about.com where I have also downloaded movies from in the past several weeks. None of them are working now.
I've only changed 1 setting on my PC that I know of recently, and that was to turn off ""automaticaly check for network folders and printers" when I was trying to fix the gliching problem of my new video card (which didn't fix it). I just turned that option back on though, and still won't let me DL.
I remember seeing someone post something about this semi-recently, but couldn't find it doing a search.
Fileplanet still downloads everything just fine though.
EDIT: Hmmm, seems like the multimedia center ATI installed onto my PC when I installed the vid card is causing the problem. My defaults for most video files were set to the ATI player. Just switched them back to Windows Media Player and everything seems ok.
Damn I'm good :)
