Download Increased

#1 Postby mastypk » Aug 14, 2010 10:19 pm

Hello,

I found that my downloads has increased dramatically up to 4 times (400%) while unique visits & page views are still same.

Anyone can help?

Regards

uploaders these days split their files & upload ; so if a downloader wants to download the entire file he has to dl 4 diff files i.e. 4 downloads , ip renaming the same

But it doesn't make that much difference.

Same Page views, same visits etc, but downloads has increased to 400%.

Admin check what? Your users using automated downloaders. Isn't it obvious?

how to stop auto downloaders ?

also if its a auto downloader, it will scrape the page; you wont see in ur analytic stats but the page does get loaded

Here goes list of all plugins for jDownloader:
http://svn.jdownloader.org/projects/jd/ ... ins/hoster

If your site is there, then download increase probably cause by it.

We can "hack" your templates a bit so their parser will break, but this won't help for long since they update plugins frequently. Contact us for details.

Any possibility to bypass it? Like confirmation texts & more captchas etc.

that tool already has captchas way around things

only way is to have a script which will randomly change template and making it impossible for auto downloaders as they depend on pattern
