hey all!!

i'm having an issue downloading mods on my boyfriend's mac. ..:brokencomputer:.. my pc is MIA at the moment and i'm stuck with his mac... planetelderscrolls.com is giving me an error message about popups and won't let me download. i've googled to no avail. i'm logged in properly to the website, and have his popup manager turned off. kind of annoyed bc i want to stock up on the recent lovely mods! please help??

EDIT: just double checked the error message, and now i don't get that message but i still cant download. it just give me a button to join fileplanet as a premium member.. which i won't do. ..:ahhh:...

it may be that fileplanet is hiding the continue button
look in the corners and see if you can pick out his striped red hat.

could you take a screen shot of the window you receive?
that may help if someone has seen it before

well, there are alternatives
there is also elricm and a few independent download sites
so I doubt you are completely barred off from mods

@dvartst: try http://www.opera.com/browser/download/?os=mac&list=all. I am using the windows version as default browser for years now. It doesn't have any issues with fileplanet. I bet the Mac version works fine, too.
