When I want to download mod for a game, I can't do that, because I am redirected there - thus I can't download it since Polish IPs are just banned.
"Your country is not supported," said Gamefront. Bull****. It's a BAN on IP numbers from my country, nothing more nothing less.
You can use a web based proxy server that masks your Real IP and gives you a fake one from any country you choose, so you can quite easily by-pass that and download whatever you want from wherever you want!
If you want the Link, PM ME

Well, in Poland it's "kind-of-illegal" and I had somehow "one cute adventure" with police about "cybernetic piracy" - nope. The only good thing is I didn't get fined for that (and I can't afford loosing PC because of degree documents I'm writing right now).
Still, I find that awkward and dirty move of one of the biggest mods download page against all but North America. Out of curiosity, why wasn't Gamefront got sued for such move? Is this REALLY legal? Hell, it comes under the racism.
