mig: that's the option i was referring to !

if you check that NEVER option, then it is taked on your cache (hardrive) unless there is an update...

viper: like 2000 said... some people cannot play it . they have to play using the IN-BROWSER version !
why, because the downloadable is too damn unstable comapred to the other one. at least in about 1/2 of the cases !

so i think forcing people to use the DL version is not a very good way, as it will surely reduce the many player who are forced to use the IN-BROWSER version because the DL one crash evertimes !

now, if tmyapp considered that IN-WEB to expensive, he would have already deleted it !
so it must not be demanding too much !

i still think the DL version and the IN-WEB are the very same !
they DOWNLOAD in both case. and if setted right, they will both be playing from the HARDDRIVE which means they are equal !

and if you think CLICKING on MIRROR 1 is giving him a hard time, then just think that the WEB SITE isn't on the same server as the game which means it'is only while playing that the game is taking bandwith !
