Question Napster Users...

Has anyone else been banned from Napster lately? If so, did you sign that form? I've even tried eliminating all my Metallica songs, the Napster cookies, as well as doing a fresh install of Napster, and it still has me flagged. Any suggestions? Did I miss a cookie or something?

Not sure but I think what they do is keep your IP address and when you try and log back in it recognizes it and boots you. If you have a static IP you're pretty well screwed but if you have a floating IP like I do you can wait a while and try again. Like I said I'm not sure about this but just an idea.

Cool

If you do a search you can find a program that will unblock you. Basicly it puts a tag in your registry and recignizes you through that. I used to be blocked too

Yea me too. Mine would just tell me there were no results for my searches no matter what I put in. I finally gave up. They're shutting down the free stuff at the end of the year though, right?

post your email address and I will email you the proggie that unbans you from napster. MAKE SURE you back up your registry before using it because it changes your registry. I have never had a problem with it hurting my registry but you never know.

Sweet! Awesome! Worked like a charm the second time... the first time, it opened the program in its own window instead of prompting it to doanload... wierd?!?! Tried it again and it worked fine.
Back in Business. Thanks a ton!
