Error: Received HTTP 403 while downloading (Whilst downloading the full game)

I am constantly receiving this 403 error. It occurs very early on but always on a random amount of completion (I have seen it DL 110KB and several values around 300KB of the game).
This is the specific error message:
Error: Received HTTP 403 while downloading
http://patch10.pathofexile.com:8095/patch/0.9.8.9/Metadata/Particles/monster_effects/rare_explode/fire/fire_mid.pet

After receiving this, the DL just exits and has to start again from 0%.

Running Windows 7 and Firefox.

EDIT: Pardon, it wasn't 110KB it was 1.10KB and likewise with the 300 values actually being 3.something KB.

I have tried to run the Pack Check to no avail.

Have you tried patching over a VPN?
i have same problem, in 97.43% of downloading a 8.57 mb file error code 403 occurs and download stops.
is there any solution? also i tried PackCheck.exe and still no luck.

Rather than bumping an old post, you should create your own so it can be handled independently without causing huge long threads. It's easier to track/manage.

As for your problem, did you try my suggestion in the post above yours and patch over VPN?
eventually problem solved by repeating packcheck and vpn! thanks :D
how do you download it over a VPN? im not too computer literate, i cant download this game, ive tried at least ten times so far, getting same error as everyone else
