Evidence continues to mount that ffnet has instituted some sort of throttling system that significantly slows down some requests once they decide that you've made too many. We don't know what their criteria are, but it does seem to be slow downs rather than outright blocking.

The only advice I can give is don't do 'too many' downloads or update at once, or in a day. The value of 'too many' is unknown, but I'd guess it's lower than 100.
