| 02.04.2009 | Data security - Backups every 60 on 3 servers.. You will find more information in our Support Forum. |
| 26.02.2009 | Database will be imported on two new servers.. According to our ToDo list our database will move to two new servers. More information on the current situation and the timing of the move can be found in our Support Forum. |
| 14.02.2009 | We are getting started again. Right after the bad news and all the time we invested we are happy to inform you about updates which increase the usability and security. 1) Preliminarily you were able to choose from a very large number of sites in the UCP. This could get quite confusing. Now you will have 6 sites which allow you to simply use forward, back, end, beginning. 2) To make the folder even more clearly arranged we moved the explanations of the status symbols to the FAQ. The unnecessary information "creation date" was switched with "folder status". The whole foldername will be displayed but only to the owner. To put it in a nutshell: compact and sensible. 3) The new hoster data-loading.com is supported now. Should you have any other wishes feel free to ask here in the Support Forum. 4) In cooperation with Jdownloader we are happy to inform you about, which is only available here. What is it and what can it do for me? You will find all the answers in our FAQ. 4) Our FAQ was edited and extended by additional entries. Errors were fixes aswell. 5) Container mistakes which happenend now and then were fixed. 6) more bugfixes which you reported in our Support Forum were implemented. 7) New server was ordered, old one was fixed. During the next days we will go the first step in our new security implements which will safeguard the database twice. The database will move soon, but not during the main time. 8) It is our job to ensure your safety by modulating the encryption. This excludes tools. Of course we do not wish to worsen your comfort. This is why we implemented Click N Load. In case JDownloader does not read the Linksave.in link or gives an error message please download the container or use Click N Load. We would like to inform you though that the direct import of Linksave.in links does not support us for no commercials are loaded. This is another reason for implementing Click N Load for it as easy but supports us. Thank you! 9) Our Support Forum The Lounge in cooperation with speedlounge.in draws 15 x Rapidshare.com Premium Accounts. |
| 01.02.2009 | Sorry for the waiting time. Our translator was busy and willl translate it today the 15.02.
What is going on at Linksave.in?! Users and the webmaster are asking themself this question. I will try to list everything that happened in chronological order. I have to admit though that it is very hard. 1) 2 months ago we changed our hoster, due to rapid increasements of our service. This forced us to get more affordable hardware, now 4 servers. Due to the possibilities, Auto-Mirror-Detection, size and online status info, we needed e.g. 50 ip-adresses to avoid a ban from the hosters. Usually this is not possible, or costs a couple of hundred euros more every month. This forced us to choose like we did. 2) The attacks on Linksave.in started around the same time. Normal DOS, but also DDOS which caused our system to crash. We lost 1000 user accounts during one of the attacks. We changed our system, which cost us quite a lot of money. Backups are created on 2 servers, databases are checked multiple times, we will be notified via SMS, ICQ and telephone if any downtime occurs. This problem should belong to the past now. 3) We had just fixed the problems, but new downtimes followed due to a configuration errror by the hoster. Unfortunately we were not able to categorize this mistake and thought it was a result of an overload due to DDOS attacks. A couple of days ago we found out that one (1) of our IPs was already in use, which overloaded the system. This mistake was corrected. 4) 3 downtimes followed since 27.01.09. We suffered a database-crash and had to use a backup. The server did not accept it, and we had to assume that all backups were damaged. At first we thought this was our mistake, which thankfully was not the case. A HDD of the database-server was defective, which they did not notice until the 29.01.09. We lost 8 hours of links. It was not possible to exchange the HDD during the weekend. We did not want to accept another 13 hours of offtime and were offered a different system for the database by a different company. 5) This database-server with Raid-10 broke today. This time we did not lose any data. The company drove to the data centre and worked on saving the serversystem. Precautionary we extended our Cronjob-server additionally to a database-server and tried to implement a backup from the 28.01. We just wanted to go online but got a call that the backup was on its way. It was implemented, nothing was lost! Good news! What do we plan to prevent this in the future? 1) Our first database-server will be replaced and all the data from our Cronjob server will be implemented. This way both systems run seperately. Of course this will happen without any data loss. 2) A company will devise a fail-over concept for us. We will use an additional server as an 1:1 copy of the database server. Should anything go wrong with our active server this backup will be switched on automatically. This means no more losses in the future. 3) Backups will be done seperatly on 2 servers however. The database will be checked multiple times every day. 4) Linksave.in will be checked for improvements by a company in addition to the fail-over concept. This will take about 8 weeks. We do not want to rush things. 5) Hosting will be checked aswell and maybe replaced after the contracts ended in april. What will hapen in the near future at Linksave.in? 1) Right now Linksave.in is int he process of founding a company to work together with other companies to ensure your safety, but also to develop a new compensation system! 2) The current to do list (without fail-over, new concepts etc.) comprises 33 issues which will make the administration easier, accomplish more security, and comprise statistics and bonuspoints. 3) The compensation system will be developped by us, after exchange left the encryption sites. We also would like to tell you that the webmasters destroyed the commercials. But we would not be Linksave.in if we had not forseen this. 4) For the bad 2 months and all the waiting for new compensations systems, your trust and loyalty we will give a bonus to everyone with atleast 50 folders. The bonus will be determined A by users and B by the amount of fodlers. This bonus will be in addition to the normal cashouts. |
| 10.01.2009 | News to the loss of login data. We are happy to inform you that we worked on 103 of 108 sent emails successfully. All links were reattached. Once again we would like to say sorry for the circumstances. Unfortunately no service in this world is completely protected from those attacks. We are doing everything in our power though to allow for a quick processing and are currently working on improvements and more security. To regain the lost trust we are installing new security measurements for every user. More on this later. We know about those of you that have to search for all the individual links and assure you that you will be rewarded for this. Not only does every user save alot of time, but we have some nice rewards, especially for trust. In addition we are planning on more rising user stats and more webmasters, which should repay your loss. Support us even more and we will repay you in multiple ways. I would like to stress again that almost everyone will be helped. Please read the topic in the forum carefully. Dont forget that every link you search and find gives you more cash in the future! A big thank you goes to our Admin of the Support Forum. I would not have been able to accomplish all this work without him! It is good to know that people offer their help in bad times. I would also like to thank YOU the users which give us their trust and do not throw in the towel but decide based on facts. Thank you |
| 08.01.2009 | Login problems. We regret that we have to inform you that due to enduring attacks on Linksave.in, we lost about 1000 logins. All your folders and commercial options are still online and safe! To our blessing in disguise this attack only effected the login data. You will find more detail information in our support forum - click-. We are currently working on alternative solutions and assure you we are giving our best. As recompensation and a little thank you the layersystem should go online in february. It may take longer though due to the damage done. We are still hoping for your support and trust. Thank you! |

| 13.11.2008 | With a little delay here are our News. 1) The FAQ which we talked about for months now has the first entries. All hosters which are supported by Linksave.in were transfered from "Protect Links" to this FAQ due to a better overview. Also you will find some information there on how to earn money. 2) Linksave.in supports additional hosters. They are sharebase.to, mediafire.com, dataup.de. 3) An additional server for Linksave.in will go online next week. We do not only encrypt, but make the administration, with many functions possible. This needs lots of power and therefor we had to buy an additional server. Now we have one for the homepage, one for the database and one for Cronjobs which will give you all the functions in a peak period. He ask for your understanding in case that some things wont work 100% from the beginning. 4) Timeouts at Linksave.in happened more often. We have to admit that our timeouts happened more frequently. As you may have read in earlier news this is due to massive attacks. We would like to appologize to all our loyal uploaders and webmasters and thank for the patience you showed. Thank you 5) Advertisment at Linksave.in. We got many mails asking when it will be possible to use layers as an alternative to banners. We would like to use this chance to make an announcment. As some of you may have noticed we changed our provider a couple of times to find the one most fitting for everyone. During most of those tests there have not been any commissions whatsoever. Earnings where spent on the servers and saved for the upcomming new design (keep on reading). We are currently developing an accounting system to be able to provide you with more power than anyone else can. Please be patient. You may get more information in the FAQ. 6) UCP will be completly redesigned. Linksave.in offers 70% more functions than any other site. Because of that it is not easy to store all those neatly. We want to change that and have decided for a new delevopment. This will bring more functions while giving a very good overview. After this and another top secret project are done we will leave Linksave.in to a designer. Come and take pot luck. |
| 25.10.2008 | We were offline click for more information. We would like to apologize to you, our loyal user. No data was lost and all your links are still secure at Linksave.in. We will expand and upgrade our system to ensure that these situations do not happen again. DDOS attacks do not make this take easier though. We hope not to loose your trust and ask for your support. We will do everything in our power to keep downtimes as low as possible.Thank You |
| 18.08.2008 | Error on Linksave.in. - *fixed* There had been an error on Linksave.in regarding the link forwarding since 3 p.m. to 12 p.m. today. All hosts except for Rapidshare were affected by this. What happened is that all links are forwarded to Heise.de. We could not reach our technical department for several hours. But the problem was taken care of. We apologize for this inconvenience. You do not have to worry about any data loss due to daily data backups. Your hyperlinks are still safe and valid. The current status can be found in the Support Forum The Lounge.Thank you |
| 17.08.2008 | Lots of news. It has been a while since we posted news, which does not mean that we do not have any. To keep you informed, here is a list of changes. 1) The most importent change is probably the fact, that Linksave.in now has a Support Forum. Linksave joined The Lounge, a Support Forum with professional partners Jdownloader . This step was necessary to respond to requests more quickly and systematically. You can find it through our partners or this banner.  2) Linksave.in now supports additional hosters: meinupload.com, filefactory.com, freakshare.net, share-online.biz. 3) The area where you can create and protect hyperlinks was newly arranged. Only the essential parts remained. All the other settings can now be reached through an additional hyperlink. 4) Container or folder clicks, and even single clicks will not be resetted any longer. An IP-ban is effective for one hour and not restricted on individual folders. 6) Votes were improved. Total number of votes can now be displayed by moving your mouse over the vote. 5) The disclaimer in the Iframe was deleted on all host websites by user request. This allows for a better overview. 7) The notification und mirror option is now accessible for every user without restrictions. Before the user had to choose between options, now all of them may be used. 8) Advertisment. An inad is used for testing purposes only. We will allow the placing of banners, layers and in/frame ads in the near future. You will be able to choose between five different positions for them. In addition to that we would like to inform you that our actions in contrast to other providers are compliant to rules. We do not just want to provide free choice for you but also want to ensure that you receive your cash for your hyperlinks. Stay with us and use linksave.in more frequently, because soon you can make up to 18 EUR. 9) Any changes which I forgot to write down. |
| 25.06.2008 | 2 new features! Since yesterday you are able to make use of our two newest features on linksave.in! Now you have the possibility to be informed if one or more of your files are offline. Independent from the first feature you can also specify one or multiple mirrors. As soon as the first upload becomes offline it will be automatically detected and the next available mirrorlinks will be displayed. Both features can be used for protecting folders, also afterwards in the member area for existing folders. |
| 05.06.2008 | Shortly the EM lottery of The Lounge, Supportforum for MSD, RSD & jD and friends. Join the force and win cool prizes!  Good Luck! |
| 13.05.2008 | New features! Now you can "multi-protect" very many links automatically in different folders. Confused? Just take a look at the examples on that page ;) And you can see now, how many users downloaded which container from your folders (on mouseover over the visits-row in your userCP. |
| 09.05.2008 | Today we added the hoster Fast-Load.net to Linksave.in. If you wish to have other hosters added, please don't hesitate to contact us. Minor new feature: You can now see in your userCP, on which position in the queue - which checks and adds filesize and -name of your files to our database - your folder is at the moment. |
| 06.05.2008 | It has come to our attention, that rapidshare.com blocks an IP-address for some time, if there are too many requests (ca. 150 to 200) without a delay between the requests. The requests, which the Linksave.in-server sends to the rapidshare servers, are for checking the filesize of your links. So now all link which are supposed to be checked for their filesize are added to a queue and continuously processed with a delay of 500 milliseconds between each check. With that Method, Linksave.in should be able to circumvent the RS-blacklisting ;) PS: The downtime from 6:55pm to 6:57pm was because our technicians had to install a new linux kernel on the server and then reboot it. |
| 21.04.2008 | Hi again. We have added some new features our technicians have been working on these days. They spent almost every bit and byte of their spare time to bring you... the following features :) 1) User control panel: You can now sign up for the control panel (short: userCP). If you are logged in while you create a new folder, it is automatically added to the userCP where you can view and edit all of your folders. If you have some older folders, that you own but which are not in your control panel, you can add them by entering the folder-IDs and the correct adminpasswords here. 2) Additional one-click-hosters: You can now add not only Rapidshare.com-links, but also links from Uploaded.to, Netload.in and Depositfiles.com. For Netload.in there is unfortunately no reasonable possibility to display the filename and -size. 3) Filesize check: An option named "Check filesizes" to the protection-formular. If that box is checked, the filesizes and filenames of your links (except Netload.in-links) will be saved in our database and shown on the downloadpage. For folders that were created before this feature you can update the links in your folders by clicking "Check filesizes" while editing or in the user control panel. 4) Multilanguage support: You can use this service now in english and german. I hope there are no bugs left, but if so, please contact our technicians. |
| 07.04.2008 | Welcome. With our linkprotection-service you can encrypt your links and distribute them in the common container-files like RSDF, CCF and DLC without you having to create them manually. Our servers will do that job for you! That plus the ability for you to earn money by adding a banner and a mirror-URL should provide long-lasting relationships with you and other webmasters. Also we offer you webprotection - should it be cracked by any link2plaintext-program, we change the algorithm. If you have any suggestions about how to improve our service, or have found a bug, please don't hesitate to inform our technicians. So have fun using our brand new service and recommend it to your friends ;) |
