Thanks for the heads up to the site Bojan, looks like it may be a very interesting resource, hope the downloads are free, can't get any better than that.

All I got was ads and no links to downloads.......

[bojan]

Below there is a box named
external links:
no password required
ifile.it (http://ifile.it/zovwf2/ebooksclub.org__U_S__Astronomy_and_ Astrophysics.l_7ox0xnnx1j.pdf)"

Link is ifile.it

Full of ads and misdirected links, tried about 4 x but never got to the book.

[koputai]

Yes, the links that look like pdf's end up being html's leading to more ads.

Bojan, have you managed to actually download a book?

Cheers,
Jason.

[bojan]

Yes I have. Sorry for not mentioning those additional steps, I simply forgot :doh:
On the linked page there is a button "request for download ticket".
You click that then you wait for a while.... then there is another web page with the download button. This will be the actual link to pdf file.

OK thanks, sorry for the hassle.

Cheers,
Jason.

This is almost certainly not legal, I've downloaded collected some evidence… ;)

Cheers

Nah not legal at all, it is a anonymous upload site like some others.

[bojan]

Well, if this is illegal, then we at least know what not to do.
