While it's infuriating to be unable to download files greater than 1.0 GB now, most files usually remain intact and you occasionally come across one where it's split into 2 parts and not 6. You can get quite a few files like this provided you have the patience to wait 45 minutes per part to download.

-Good d/l speed (up to 2.5mb/sec - while mediafire is 1.5mb/sec). -Requires guests to download files in separate archives when the file is bigger than 100mb. Overall, it's a decent hoster. Don't complain about what you haven't paid for.

FORCES you to download your file in parts and it takes forever. (And the guy who rated this site green works at this site or owns it because his name is Literally "FilesMonster". What a Dumb-Ass he is for thinking he can fool us!) This site, despite it's name, is literally a Files Monster. It gargles up the file you want and spits it out one piece at a time every 45 minutes unless you give it money, then it will just take a dump and it will all come out at once.

I have found personal files that I created and shared with others being offered on this site while demanding payment for the files. I would not have believed it if I had not seen it for myself. This kind of practice is below a slippery-slope and an outrage.

Yesterday I found the official forum FilesMonster with service information, photos, video clips and downloads - ***** - there daily updates, high quality content and convenient access to any categories of video. Recommend this service!

I paid for a 30 day account and never received a login and password.

Банят пользователей за неактивность.

Splits file in two, but always gives error on second part. If it is this unreliable, why would anyone waste money on this when there are far better online file services available.

Downloads never work. Wants you to pay for service you can EASILY find for free. Their business model is pathetic. Utterly pathetic.

A scam. Never use this service unless you want unlimited frustration. After downloading part 1 of a three part file, I had to wait 45 minutes to download part 2. After downloading part 2, the download link for part 3 would not refresh, and displayed this message permanently: With your IP address ***** is already in use 1 free download(s). The next download will be available by 45 minutes after the end of active download To avoid limitations buy Premium account No amount of waiting, clearing cache, cookies; restarting my browser, using a different browser, etc... would change this message. Waiting 45 minutes forever means NEVER accessing content. Be prepared for endless wait times. Avoid at all costs.

This site has all videos, no matter how large, in a single file. They have to be downloaded withing 24 hours. Unfortunately, the site is rather slow, so a full movie may not download within one day. I have downloaded 99% of a movie and then lost it. Also, and this may or may not be of importance, Filesmonster comes from Finland but apparently is located in Russia. I would not have given them my credit card number, but so far I have had no problems. I will keep my fingers crossed. Also, being in Russia, who knows how private it is? I think Hotfile is safer for a download site.

When you click on one of their links, it asks you to complete a captcha and tells you to wait 59 seconds to begin downloading. After a minute passes, you are then told that "there are no more free downloading slots available". It's like this constantly; doesn't matter how many times you try, you will never get obtain your file. This is a poorly veiled attempt of forcing the user into purchasing a premium account just to complete their download. This place is to be avoided.

Downloads don't seem to work, then they say "you've reached download limit" and plug a premium "service"

Filemonster.com: Poor quality of free service and aggressive style. My verdict is: the monstrous extortioner

Connected with the Russian organised crime. I downloaded a file here and I was presented with a banner directing to a fraudulent online pharmacy that connected with the bigest pharma spammers on the internet. The DNS records of filesmonster.com shows it`s IP ***** being hosted in Holland at a rogue ISP "Serverboost IP space" also a sponsor for Russian cyber crime (malware, exploits). I wouldn`t give my personal data to site for a sign up... neither to upload something that will be surely copied and used for their own interests.
