I would recommend installing an ad blocking addon for your browser, such as AdBlock Plus.
https://adblockplus.org
All those (or, at least, majority of) fake download buttons will magically disappear.

Some forums frown upon mentioning ad blockers, because it can and it does interfere with their source of revenue.
If that is also the case here, the post can be removed immediately.

Is the green button on HugeFiles at the bottom that says Download (and nothing else) the right one?
Sorry to be a pain.

The correct button is this one:



The wrong one is e.g.:


(You can see the iLivid text at the bottom right, it's the ad company)

Thank you this post has been super helpful, the amount of download buttons on some is NUTS, but I have never given a second thought to study the tick boxes!

Thank you for the info, I have had to completely delete some books because I couldn't figure out how to download without the company downloader . You have made things much clearer for me.

Thank you for the information.

Thanks for the info.
Very useful.

just realised this topic is different from the one in ANNOUNCEMENT though first post has got similar/ same content.
viewtopic.php?f=1&t=498030

anyway, i would like to check if anyone's having issues downloading files from UPLOADED? specifically, pdf files from the ADULT section. i've been trying for the past week or so without much luck. file will download and then stop 1-2 seconds later. i end up with a file that i can't open. the file i see on my phone shows its PDF file but very small in size (less than 1kb).

i have no issues downloading regular epub and movies (but usually these aren't from UPLOADED).

I had a similar problem on UL with a PDF 107kb file. I attempted to d/l a crochet booklet multiple times from my phone after waiting 1/2+ hours for 'free' with various unsuccessful results. From another phone the d/l was successful, but I had the long wait! Don't know if it's the UL system or the fact I was d/ling 'free'. Very frustrating; will avoid UL when possible!!
