Problem with HOTFILE.COM plugin

FRD Version : 0.82
Plugin version: 0.6.3 (hotfile.com by Kajda+Arthur Gunawan)

When the hotfile.com URL contains spaces and parenthesis at the same time, download fails. It generates an error message, which actually contains only the hotfile URL truncated, and no other information.

It appears that the URL is truncated at the position of the parenthesis.

I have uploaded a test file with the conditions mentioned above, which generates the same problem...

[hotfile.com]

Spaces replaced with "_" by hotfile, but the filename still appears with spaces on the download page.

Fixed, version 0.64.
Thanks for detailed reporting.

Thanks a lot for your immediate response, and for solving the problem! You were remarkably quick!

FRD is amazing, worth of taking the time to vote for it!

version 0.64 not working now.

Hi,

it seems that hotfile has changed the download page again, i only get a error message with "Tag with containing "Click here to download" was not found!"

Update:

Now there is a captcha on the hotfile download page.

I tried some links and it worked fine (no captcha). Can you tell me, when the captcha is required? Can you post a test link?

The captcha appears only on downloads for big files. I tested it with a simple text file and there was no captcha but if i try to download a 300 Mb file a captcha appears.

"The captcha appears only on downloads for big files.."

That doesn't seem to be the case anymore.
I just encountered this fenomen on a file that was less than 2Mb, so it looks like they might be in the process of changing it to be captchas on all files,
or maby 2Mb is considered a large file @ hotfile.com....

Same problems here, the damn capcha

The new version of the plugin works fine!
