Rapidshare IP address issues

Just a quick one which might be a Rapidshare problem but then again maybe it can be fixed by someone in Plusnet.
Im on a static IP and for some reason now whenever I go to rapidshare it thinks im already downloading a file. I thought maybe it just didn't download the file properly and it will timeout soon.
It's now been a whole day and i've disconnected my router multiple times and it just keeps saying I am downloading.
Is there any fix for this or can I change to a dynamic ip temporarily? Im on a really old account type (homeworker 8mb originally).
Cheers  Smiley

Have you tried deleting the Rapidshare cookie?

Re: Rapidshare IP address issues

I cleared my cache and cookies, and just tried on a different machine to be sure... and i get exactly the same issue. Usually this sort of thing lasts about 30mins before the file times out, but a whole day?Huh

As no-one from PN has responded here, I think it would be safe to assume they had nothing to do with the resolution.

Indeed, I'm not aware of anything we did at this side that would have resolved the problem. By all means keep an eye on it though and shout up if the problem resurfaces.
