So I was visiting the site and I couldn't help but to notice that there's a status update at the top saying that this Monday, the site will be closed indefinitely:
Farewell - We are suspending FileFront site operations indefinitely on March 30. Please see the following link for more information:
http://farewell.filefront.com/

Pretty sad to see it go, to say the least.

Wait, wait wha? Since when did this happen? Aw crap.

 
All platforming problems can be mostly solved here:

These are very excellent examples by other people and are very informative.

I liked filefront - it was one of the those places that almost always had the patch you were looking for.

Check it now... It's not going. At least that means that there's not going to be a whole slew of 404's on the web.

They were re-aquired by the original founders of the site.

http://welcome.filefront.com/

They also go to great measures to tell you it's not an April Fools joke.


Taken from the welcome page of the site:

"
1) 1) The March 24th announcement about FileFront suspending its operation was NOT an early April Fool's joke.

2) This announcement about the original founders buying back FileFront from Ziff Davis Media is also NOT an April Fool's joke.

3) We're making this announcement on April 1st because the deal was completed today and we want to bring all services back online immediately.

4) We would NEVER suspend FileFront as an April Fool's joke.

5) We are happy to be back!

Phew... at least won't have to find another hosting site.

Thank goodness- my files are still there. Filefront isn't so bad in my books. :|
