    Hello g00r00!

    I just noticed that although a user does not have access to download (or even tag) a file -- as per File Base Settings --> DL Unvalidated or DL Failed, he/she can still view an archive and then (D)ownload files from within the archive.

    Perhaps the (D)ownload option of the archive viewer -- both the to-be
    built-in one and the "external" one for other archive formats -- shouldn't allow downloads if the DL Unvalidated (for unvalidated files) or DL Failed
    (for failed files) restriction isn't satisfied?

    Best regards

    I have updated it to require the user to meet the "Download Unvalidated ACS" and "Download Failed ACS" respectively when using the Download function inside the archive viewer.

    This will be in today's build which I am about to upload (it should be there by the time you see these messages).

    Thanks a lot! Seems to be working fine now!

    P.S. I noticed the Unvalidated status is shown as "Invalid" inside the (E)ditor for files -- maybe it should say "Unvalidated" there, too? D.S.

    Good call I will change it to "Unvalidated" in the editor.

    ... Unzip... expand... What kind of pervert came up with this?
