For those of you who are having issues downloading the current patch over the Blizzard BitTorrent client, and are premium members to the site, once again we are offering a premium-only download of the patch. Come and get it!

Can we have a 24 hour sticky of this post so I (and others) don't have to dig for it later?

Many thanks. I was dreading trying to download from BT during prime time once I get home.

This is, indeed, an excellent idea, since my downloader crapped out at 99% :)

when I try the link, though, it gives me a 'permission denied" message (I am a premium subscriber). This is not the first time I've run into something like this (my guild uses a home made UI that I always have to bum off of someone because the link on our web page gives the same error).

Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks folks!

A true value add for premium members, many thanks.

Blizzards download was still calculating 5 min in. about 12 min in and it's installing via this download (right now).

Again, thanks for making this available.

DaernothRavenmantle, I think you are mistaken on your account type, maybe not. Did you use Paypal or a Credit Card to pay for Premium Membership, or did you just register with the site as a member? Judging from your post count, you might not realize that Premium Members are those who have paid money to gain special benefits such as this, as well as being able to have Avatars, a journal, etc. Go [link=wow.allakhazam.com/premium/Premium_Chart.html]Here[/link] for more information.

EDIT: messed up on link Smiley: lol

Mmmmmmmmm. HTTP protocol. Over a 7 Meg pipe. Mmmmmmmmm.
No longer will I be penalized for my fast upload speeds! Blizzard can take their BitTorrent and shove it where the sun don't shine!
Thank you, Alla! Praise be to Alla! Smiley: grin

EDIT: I was done downloading before I finished typing that message! I'm so happy, I Smiley: laugh and Smiley: cry interchangeably!

Well done Danalog and thank you <you too Alla Smiley: wink2 >

I'd been considering getting a Premium membership for a while but this pushed me over the edge. I waited for 2 hours and Blizzard's downloader only got to seven percent. Only took a minute from Allakhazam.

i just updated my account to "premium", mostly for the sole purpose of getting the patch from you. I paid my $10, I changed my old email account with you as it is defunk and I logged in here with my new password which was sent to me from you via email.

I click the above link, it goes to the d/l page. It states I am a "premium" member, I click the link to d/l the patch and I get an "access denied" page that is blank.

What is the deal!? I just paid, it says I'm "premium"...so why am I denied?

You are wonderful. Thank you very much for coming up with this timesaving tool.
#19 Mar 22 2005 at 6:12 PM Rating: Decent
I also am a premium member who doesn't have access to the downloader. Gives me the unauthorized access message. I paid by debit card, does that make a difference?
#20 Mar 22 2005 at 6:19 PM Rating: Decent
I can't download either...I can get to the dowload page, but downloader can't find the file. Any suggestions?
#21 Mar 22 2005 at 6:35 PM Rating: Decent
Well, I was able to download it but I'm getting an error that "This patch cannot be applied because it is a different version than the game". I double checked, I did downloadthe correct patch. Anyone else get this, or have any ideas?

seems I just got it figured out...perhaps I am dense.

But...all you need to do is disable your firewall/anti-virus. I did this and instanly was able to d/l the patch from the above link.

Two things I should say about that....one, you should have stated my firewall/anti-virus would block your patch link. It would have saved me some trouble and also sending you and email. Second, why should I have to disable my firewall to get the patch from this link? That doesn't make much sense to me but whatever...

Thanks for the patch though...i'll have it in about another 2 minutes. =]
#23 Mar 22 2005 at 7:30 PM Rating: Decent
Please respond to this if anyone has got this to work! I have downloaded the file, but its telling me it cannot be applied because it is a different version than the game. Anyone get this thing to work???

#25 Mar 22 2005 at 7:42 PM Rating: Decent
i cant find anyway to get a message to the owners of this site? so ill post it here. I bought WoW thru here /ebgames. i was suposed to get a free month of premium service. Never Did.

Why dont you have a simple, and ez to find way to get a msg to webmaster / site?? It seems every part of the internet is only about ez ways to take our money and make it impossible to communicate back with anything but a credit card #. if this is the future of our business world, i pity you young ones.

for those about to flame, i did use the submit info, its not installed.

I wish I would have known something like this would be available before spending the two hours downloading earlier in the day. Is this going to be a regular service?
