I APPEAR TO HAVE REACHED A DOWNLOAD LIMIT REGARDING THE SIMULATIONS. i CANT FIND ANY INFO ON SITE REGARDING THIS, DOES IT RESET DAILY, WEEKLY, OR AT ALL. I REALY WANT TO DOWNLOAD THE SHEFFIELD SIM, BUT DIDNT SEE THE SECOND PAGE OF SIMS UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE. ANY INFO WOULD BE KINDLY RECEIVED.

If you look at the top of the page when you've selected a file to download, there is a message saying:

You have downloaded this file x times in the last 24 hours, limit is 5.
Your file downloads total x in the last 24 hours, limit is 10.

Just wanted to add to this that in the past some users downloaded the system files or a simulation again (and possibly repeatedly) just because installing it didn't work. Whilst I'm sure it is understandable that some users (perhaps 'newbies'probably meant no harm in doing this, unfortunately it pushed up the total bandwidth limit for the website and eventually froze all downloads completely for a while. Hence, it need these limits to be fair to others.
