Here's my reply:

Code: Select all

Read the URL and separate the words - they might give you a clue.  If they still don't try this link instead:

http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/70407/wo/nH6fdYxhtKFu3GvkBrh1rI72StL/0.0.7.1.0.6.21.1.5.1.0.0.0.1.0

It's a lot more reliable.

Once you've made something idiot proof, they go and invent a better idiot!

Probably, but it's still funny to see that someone doesn't realize that they are being made fun of, especially when they are trying to get hold of some warez.

It was a private message (from the forum), not an e-mail. A while ago, someone had asked where they can download OS-X and I put that link in the post as a joke. I hate explaining myself ;)

It's a general problem for the guy who thinks he can download from that FTP site...
