Default The files don't download?

Hey everybody, I'm new to Abandonia and actually came here looking for old DOS memories...specifically Lost In Time. However, when I attempt to download the file, it shows that there's a download happening....and it shows that the download speed is doing alright...but it doesn't show what the size of the download is or how long it will take. Maybe I'm doing this wrong? This is my first time trying to download abandon ware.

Hi Bjorgin, I just checked the download and it seems to be working fine for me. Are you sure you're clicking the button marked, "get it?"

The same happens to me, that the total size is unknown, but it's always been like that, and it never prevented the download to go all right regardless. (Perhaps it's because of the measures against leeching the website has, honestly I have no idea.) How long have you waited for it to finish, or have you stopped it manually? There should be no problem downloading, despite what you experience.

Yeah the site always does that, the size is listed on the game page so you can work out how much is left to go. The download will work fine and once it is fully downloaded it will be marked as such. Just wait for it to finish like the others have said.
