are you using a VPN? can you reload the page and try again?

Tintin232 commented 5 months ago

I am using a VPN, but I've been using it for the past few months and never had this problem until now. I have reloaded the page multiple times, I've even tried clearing the cookies for the site - didn't help 😞.

was blocked by my VPN

can't do anything about that unfortunately, contact your provider to unblock *.imput.net

Tintin232 commented 5 months ago

I see. Thank you for your help.

Tintin232 commented 5 months ago

You were right, I got my VPN company to unblock that website, and now downloads are working again. Thanks again for your help!
