When trying to download any games from my account, Im getting a FORBIDDEN 403 error. Anyone else having this?
I just tested one, no it's working.
Just checked on several games - installers work properly. What game did you try to download?
Did you try on a different browser or using GOG Downloader?
dammit, then its just me. Could it be that my crappy ISP is blocking GOG downloads somehow? Im on that crappy pay as you go ATT isp. Dont ask, i just moved in to town and didnt have much options to choose from.

The link you get from your account page has a session id that is IP based. If you (or your ISP) use a proxy so that GOG sees one IP address but the CDN sees another, you get the 403 error. Try using the GOG Downloader since it's known to bypass those errors, or if you are on linux try using the lgogdownloader.

Please contact our Support department under this link:

http://www.gog.com/support/contact/general_website_questions

and use the "website glitches and accessibility issues" option in the drop down menu :)
Check with different browser, try using GOG installer, see if the same thing happens with all your games.
Then you can try to get some help from the professionals (that is, GOG support) :)
wow, gog community and support really answer fast! Thank you, i contacted gog under the web glitches thing, and im trying the linux gogdownloader, since im on linux opensuse. i only see debian packages for that downloader though.
