I am trying to setup a new HTPC with Media Portal, but when I try to download it from Sourceforge it counts down the 5 second wait time then cycles back to the initial download page without starting a download. I initially had a similar problem trying to download Icopy from Sourceforge so I think it is a Sourceforge specific problem. I have tried two other PCs running different Windows versions, AV, and browsers but get the same result. They are all connecting over the same ADSL connection so I wanted to see if anyone is able to download Mediaportal so that I can confirm or eliminate if it some weird problem with my Internet connection or modem.

Thanks for the confirmation. I'll try again tomorrow, and stop tearing my hair out in the meantime smile

Sourceforge had a rather large and embarrassing failure of their main storage system on the 16th of July. The site's still not completely recovered. Most of the service is back up except Developer Services which still hasn't fully recovered. I know that Developer Services issue's have been affecting downloads for a large number of projects even though the download service was one of the first sites to be recovered. This will likely be your issue (of course I had to download that one bit of software the day after their issues started so I've been following this botch up closely).

Yes, sorry about that it still seems to be down.  If you want it, send me a PM and I'm upload it to my dropbox for you.  You can trust me because I am a MediaPortal moderator :p
