Yeh, I was a little upset with no instant download too.

But it was something I was expecting after reading this post. So I was excited to log on today to have access to the site, BUT.....

I get an email saying that Im not getting access until I prove that I own the domain name I entered!
My whois is blocked to stop spam and for privacy issues so they couldnt check that I owned the domain. I also used my personal email address, so they couldnt say I owned the domain because of that too.

Now, Im guessing I have to wait another 24 hours befoe I can download. Im in Aus so when I logged on this afternoon it is midnight in USA (Im guessing the company is in USA).

Now I wont log in till tomorrow arvo. I dont understand why you need to see that I own the domain? Why would I purchase it for a domain that I didnt own?
or
What if a friend was purchasing it for me and their name is not on the whois?

my 2 cents.....
