    anyone else a heavy user of opensubtitles.org? well, lately, i notice high strangeness:

    1) starting with the SECOND download, i get "page unavailable" if i direct (left-)click. HOWEVER, i have noticed that if i right-click "open in new tab", it DLs as intended! what thu...?!

    2) after 5 or 6 DLs like this it puts me thru the "robot test", after which DLs goes dead on me even if i pass! for 24 hours i just get "page unavailable" on any future DL attempts.

    so, basically, i'm "capped out" at 5-6 DLs/day. since each typically has 2-6 files within it, i'm guessing the cap is actually "30 files", same total as the "one-time cap" up till now.

    i read somewhere that the daily limit was (had been?) 200 for free users? 30 per single DL, but 200 total.

    but now it's looking like it's also 30/day?!

    anyone know what's going on? this is becoming a royal pain.
