I'm using a proxy and can't download.
Unfortnately our free advertising supported service doesn't support uploads or downloads from users on "web proxies" or anonymized connections.
If you enjoy our service and would like to continue using it through an anonymous proxy you will need to upgrade to a premium account.

I followed a forum or short URL link and can't download?
If you follow a short URL or a redirect link such as http://www.myforum.com/pointer.php?http://www.filemonster.net/en/file/381818/filename.html you generally will be unable to access the download.
To fix this, simply copy/paste the full text of the FileMonster.net link ( http://www.filemonster.net/en/file/381818/filename.html ) into a new browser window or over the old Address. You can then download the file.

How come I can only download for awhile, then not until the next day?
More than likely our service has flagged your free account for excessive usage of resources. The system watches your upload/download activity and the time period inbetween to determine if your usage is impacting service for other visitors. If you exceed a threshhold, your downloads will be blocked until the following day.
If you enjoy our service and would like to continue using it with maximum speeds and features, we recommend upgrading to the premium package. The premium package is not affected by the above quality of service check.
