Try adding .zip to the end. If it still doesn't work, then I can give the money back.

Do files end with things like .doc, .txt, .gif, etc? The file might not end with a 3 letter word. If not, add .zip to the filename by renaming.

Actually, it is a valid zip file. It contains the file "MissingnoPokemonCrysHelp.VMV".

… Missingno does not exist in G/S/C. :/

The file is on my server as "Glitchy Pokemon Cries.zip". Perhaps the shop engine is only reporting the first word of the filename…?

Edit: When using Internet Explorer, the full file name will appear. In Firefox, only the first word did.
Edit2: Opera reports the full filename too. This appears to be a Firefox-specific glitch.

because the file is named "MissingnoPokemonCrysHelp", and "Crys" looks like "Crystal". :/ Ah, it means "crys" as in sounds. Too stupid to realize that at first. Duh.

As Firefox is able to render filenames with spaces downloaded directly off the web (last time I checked), there must be a bug with how my server sends headers.

I think that one was simply a joke. There's lots of deliberate typos in that item's description. My guess is that it's a parody of a "n00b".

yeah, the description was also an over-exaggeration of what the file actually was, but it's still something you should buy, though.
