The Apostate Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Hello! Like the title suggests, I'm having difficulties downloading files which have colons in the title. I know that file names can't contain colons, and I'm always renaming them to something else when the "save as" option pops up. Still, at the end of the download (or sometimes immediately when the download starts), I get a message about "can't copy file", and the download is aborted. This only seems to happen with files containing a colon. This one, for example: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=4752 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember the file you download here pass for some redirection before the real name is reached. Before this you would be downloading just the linkers to it.
