Default Can you guys give me some feedback?

I'm experimenting with an online storage site to replace Megaupload, but I want to see if you guys think it works well before I upload a whole bunch of files. So, can y'all download this copy of Cheesequest and let me know if the site is easy to access, if you can download from all over the world, etc? It'd help me out. Thanks.

edit: Remember to RIGHT-CLICK the link and save it rather than just clicking on it. I tried that and Quicktime broke my browser.

edit edit: I updated my Quicktime but for some reason the file won't play in the browser, at least not for me. Anyways the point here is I want to see how easy it is for people to download files not watch them on the site, so please right-click and save the file.

Took a few seconds to start up, but when it started, the download was pretty fast! I had an average of probably 434 kbps

Yes I noticed it always takes a little while to access the site...and I do get timeouts sometimes and have to refresh. I'm just hoping people don't get interrupted in the middle of a download.

I hate the username they gave me, "a-read". I'm going to see if I can request one, they didn't even give me a choice.

Well, when I tired it, the site kicked up right away, and it pulled up my Windows Media Player, but it spent a while in Windows Media Player "connecting," so I gave up.

But then again, I have little patience, so...

Well did you try right-clicking and downloading it rather than just left-clicking it?

Worked fine for me. Took 1 minute 49 seconds at an average rate of 66.5KB/sec.

Tried that, too. I got a pop-up menu with "Open," "Open in new window," "Open in new tab," etc. I clicked on "Open" and got the same results a before. I've also tried new tab and new window with the same results, plus it kills my Windows Media Player.

And for the record, I do know the difference beteen left and right, so that probably isn't the problem.
