- Q:User:Jacobdeleon3000: When I click the link for the lame mp3 encoder (the url says the same as the website) "403 Forbidden" I cannot download it.
- A: Gale 07 July 2010: As it says on our LAME download page, you need to left-click on the link for the LAME version you require (not right-click or control-click). If you still receive "forbidden" than your web browser or your firewall are set to block HTTP referrers. This is configurable in some browsers, for example see these instructions to turn on referrers in Firefox. If your web browser has a feature for "stealth" or "anonymous" browsing you will need to turn it off.
If your security restrictions cannot be removed then as a last resort you can obtain an appropriate LAME installer here.

- Q:User:ntt 16 January 2011: LAME pkg installer links are broken. -The links for the LAME Library for OSX, http://lame.buanzo.com.ar/Lame_Library_v3.98.2_for_Audacity_on_OSX.dmg is broken.
- A: Gale 20 January 2011: At the time of writing the link is working fine. As in the question above, left-click the links, turn off referrer blocking and try another web browser. If problems persist, use this alternative download site.
