You are not allowed to download a file that has been downloaded more than 250 times.

I have been planning on joining UT for some time, but the cash hasn't been around (I've wanted to join out of my own pocket, but expenses have been really high lately. I would rather not ask the boss for the money, I'm sure he would give it to me, but I'm a small part of a start up company, and I have too much empathy for the owner)

I do my best to support others here, since I feel like I've gotten a lot of help from others. Its just that I'm cash poor for the forseeable future.

>>Of course, its ignoble of me to point out that this restriction just recently started and the UT's performance has been spotty recently. (I didn't say that, someone else must have (INSIDE VOICE, INSIDE VOICE!)
