My forum users have been facing the problem in downloading the attachments from the forum recently
There have been several complaints regarding this issue
Whenever I try to download a file, it is corrupt
My forum: http://theteamk.x10.mx

androbada525,

  Are you using x10 free web hosting?  That type of hosting (free) has low limits for available space and it may be that you have simply maxed out what they will allow you to use.  The result may simply be 0kb empty files when attempting to upload attachments.

  This forum also uses free web hosting whereas uploading attachments can be problematic. This is why a 3rd party file manager is used on this forum for larger attachments (tiny upload).  If you wish to continue using free web hosting, this may be a solution for you.

androbada525,

  Use Tiny Upload to host your files and use their links in your posts.
