I don't see all uploaded files at home

[Aggie]

I play a lot of SG's where you continue with the save posted by the previous player. However, I sometimes don't see the link and I then also don't see it in the upload folder 6. Others can see it though.

Even stranger is that I can see it at work but not at home. Is there an explanation for this?

It also happened to me twice now that I uploaded a file at home that I then didn't see in the upload folder 6.

Here, at the bottom of the page, is an example of a link to a save that I see at work but not at home (posted by Charis).

do you use some firewall software like zone alarm or something? maybe it blocks it.

 

[Aggie]

I certainly have a firewall, but why can I then see 95% of all the files?

 

[SanPellegrino]

maybe you just disable it and try again?

 

[Aggie]

Ehm...I'm not going to disable a firewall because I don't see a few files. I even wonder if this is really the reason.

 

[SanPellegrino]

just a thought, or maybe it is your provider, some people reported about problems with AOL.

 

[Aggie]

I appreciate your suggestions

So no-one has a clue/familiair experience, etc...?

I have seen people mention it. I don't know what causes it, but a way to get around it, is by using no other name for the link but just let the address show. I don't know whether they can just use the link or use cut-n-paste with the address.

I'll post the two types of links to the Space-2 save as an example:

1: >> link <<

2: >> http://www.civfanatics.net/uploads6/SP2-950BC.zip <<

space, the links in the previous thread are both visible to me.
