I tried to download A Knight's Tale 2 yesterday. At first it said the file wasn't found so I clicked the Back button and tried again.

Yeah, I have that problem all of the time, for reasons I can't fathom.

I then got the same problem you did - only the first high-speed served loaded. It seemed like the page was stuck....

Hmm, that's probably because of the horrible javascript code that FilePlanet uses. Instead of polling each server and then sending you the results, it has you poll each server. So if you're downloading something (or viewing another web page and whatnot), it might take a while for you to make a successful connection to each server. That's my guess, anyway.

Though it could be a plot to get you to purchase membership too, like you said
