The FTP protocol is finally deprecated in Firefox and Chrome...

...so the FTP download links don't work any more (at least in these browsers).

Furthermore, if a download link points to a http:// page, it also fails (at least in my Chrome).

Just so you know.

I don't have high hopes, but it would be cool if this would be fixed.

If people chose to host their files somewhere that's only accessible by a now deprecated protocol the only way that can be "fixed" now is to copy the file to somewhere else.

Feel like uploading some files for a bunch of unlocked entries? :D

That could be very easily automated. Isn't CSDb already hosting a huge amount of downloadable files on its server?

But forget it, I'll just change my flags in the browser or use a download manager to download products which only have an ftp link... *sigh*
