Hi Folks

Anyone experiencing the client(awbrowser) re_downloading its jpg folder? In
this I mean that you have the jpgs and textures already dl into the aw cache
and then the client decided to re download it all again?

This might be a bandwidth plot to blast out sites (Joke)

I have spoken to one other person who also is experiencing the same.

Although we have been informed from AW.corp that the aw client is not
re-downloading jpgs again (What is shown in the F3 download box downloading
is nothing but names and numbers) (o boy

I'm wondering if my site log is now at fault?? as this is showing the
downloading????

Lets hope this non existent problem is solved.

Yes, we had that with some web servers (an IIS version).
The reason was probably the size, that was reported wrong
by the server.

You can see that, when it loads a JPG with a known size,
but shows a wrong one in the F3 download window.

Right I wait and see what happens in future, might just have been "One of
the quirks"

If not my bandwith will be blown wild, which is main concern..

I can't help but scream "Linux". If you people would quit useing Microsoft
products your life would be so much easier (I promise!) Use Linux along with
Apache and Squid. You can limit bandwith use with Squid, and Apache will do
all your web serving needs.. I recomend ncFTPd (www.ncftpd.com) for an FTP
server.

oops, after reading Jerme's comment - is your problem
the traffic limit on server side?

It seems every time I've gone into AWGate lately it has to redownload all
the textures. ?? It occasionally happens with aw too.

Hi everyone:

[View Quote] I get this problem even when I tell it *not* to download *anything*!!!! As
a result, I've the limit at 100 MB just to keep the browser from
mysteriously consuming my entire Hard Drive.
