So with a little help from the megathread I have a particularly Good website for finding Old Games, and it worked yesterday when I downloaded systemshock2, but now I'm getting a 403 forbidden message. Is this from the site itself? Or is my ISP (virgin) cucking me?

Are you using a VPN? If so, try connecting to a different server.

Get ready for an awesome letter by your ISP then

Visiting the sites in and of itself is not an issue afaik.

Oh mb I thought you used a direct download without a vpn

Aaaand you weren't in the first place, since you're not OP lol

Try testing it through tor/vpn. If it works via that way then it's the isp messing with you.
