Yesterday I heard from someone that she couldn't listen to the tracks because the link in the listen tab showed a htm file instead of a mp3 file. Back then I had no problem. Today I suffer the same faith and I've changed nothing on my local configuration. Anyone else who has the same problem?

You're probably blocking HTTP referers in your firewall or browser.
1. Try disabling the firewall and see if that helps. If it does you need to change your firewall preferences so that HTTP refering is not blocked.
2. Some browsers also have a feature that blocks HTTP referals. If you're using Opera, make sure that 'enable referrer logging' is enabled in File > Quick Preferences.
If you use Norton Personal Firewall you need to add this site to the list of trusted sites to be able to download. Akura has made a small tutorial on how to do this:

I also permit the browser option (it was standard permitted).

I'll tell in short what I did to adapt my Norton Personal Firewall.
Right click the Norton Internet Security icon in the under right corner and choose Advanced options. Choose add site and add "http://www.drumnbass.be", then choose the site out of the list and use the Privacy tab on your right. Make sure Cookies are permitted to be able to login automatically + be able to read your pm. Also permit the Referer option to allow the links to download tracks. I also permit the browser option (it was standard permitted).
Hope this helps people who don't like to read the link from The Chronic's post.

Hehe thx emblem-x, you can split the beer, a half for me because I explained how I did it but the other half belongs shurely to The Chronic because he was the one who found the link that explained somewhat longer how to setup the Norton Firewall.
Nice to hear this helps people out

Check this thread Link
The http referer must be permitted, that was the trick with me back then...

Isn't it possible to turn off the HTTP referer blocking completely? It is absolutely safe to enable this, no security risks involved.
Have you entered the full URL including http:// ?? Don't know if this is needed but it could be important.
The IP of the site shouldn't be entered I think... Probably this is not important but just trying to help!!

I seem to have the same problem, I can't dld anything from this site, and the tips mentioned above do not seem to apply to my Norton Internet Security-system, I didn't find no 'advanced' options, no 'add site' ...

Just disable it. Norton personal firewall is rubbish software, use the built-in firewall of Windows XP SP2 instead, in combination with a good virus checker and spyware remover.
