 * hi.
 * we’re trying to host our downloads on Cloudfront. We have a pair of 44m zip files;
   they both get corrupted by this plugin – file sizes do not match. Downloading
   the files directly from Cloudfront works; inserting the URL(s) below into the
   download monitor plugin result in corrupt files. Any browser results in corrupt
   files. This should be a very easy test case to reproduce and fix.
 * we’re using apache with ubuntu 14.04, wordpress 4.2.1, and download monitor 1.7.2.

 * You must activate “Redirect to file” from the file download config, I have same
   problem and this fix works for me.

 * Rmonton is correct, this would solve the issue. Alternatively you could us the`
   do_not_force` filter: [https://www.download-monitor.com/kb/the-do_not_force-filter/](https://www.download-monitor.com/kb/the-do_not_force-filter/)
