[RESOLVED] Downloads .php instead of video

Post by JimB0B »

Hi people,
Can any of you help me?
I try to download this sample video from groove3 but i always end up with a very small .php file instead of the 9MB file it said was there in the dropdown menu...

Code: Select all

http://www.groove3.com/str/popup_vplayer.php?id=3789&productid=16392&sample=Y
I did this on my computer at work and it downloaded fine.
What am i doing wrong? I've tried flashget, browserbased and jdownloader managers. I've disabled all my other add-ons in firefox. Reinstalled flashgot. Updated firefox... Running out of ideas!
So I thought Id come to the experts :)

Thanks

WFM.

Are you blocking cookies?
Maybe even Flash "cookies"?
And/or maybe referrer?

Open the .php in a text editor.
Say anything of interest?
