Aridoom and Ascendancy... only for Windows XP? At first I thought it was
a joke, but no, it really only installs on XP... great...

Did Microsoft subsidise them or something?

Grr...

Not clear why they did that, but you can download the individual maps
from other places...

Because Bill Gates is Daniel Vogel's secret lover.

When I go to "downloads" on that site, I get "access denied". Any way
we can download it without having to register?

I would let ppl DL without registering but we keep getting hit by
googlebots and when we did - our bandwidth got raped. We have a lot but not
enough at the rate it was goin. Registration prevents robots crawling over
the site and downloading EVERYTHING.

I can assure you that the registration is purely for this reason and we have
no intrest/intention of passing on any details - all u need is an email and
a password - no big form. This is a home run site by my wife and I along
with some clanmates. Meltdown - id love to have ya in my communinty - you
obviously have a lot to contribute. Maybe you could be our 100th Member 😉 -
if u think site looks useful now - content wil explode soon - i just spent a
couple of weeks moving it from awindows box to a linux box n tweaking this
n that. Finally finished - now to get back to adding content - a substance
most sites dont have

Then set up a proper robots.txt to prevent that. See
http://www.searchengineworld.com/robots/robots_tutorial.htm for more
information.

If your downloads have the right content-type header, they won't be
downloaded by the bots.

I'm flattered, but I have too little time already. If you have any
specific issues you can't seem to solve yourself, visit me here or in
alt.os.linux/comp.os.linux.
