don't use real names in your files, it's easy for them to find them and delete the files.
they remove files with rare names when third party reports the link.

and that's not new!
Santocool Reviewed by Santocool on . Hotfile is censoring themselves Today I posted a new album on a popular blog and was refused by this blog because someone else posted a duplicate at the same time. So the link was never publicized. Yet hotfile deleted the file within 1 hour. That means that hofile pulls familiar filenames by themselves without being notified by a third party. So it it's a popular file, always rename it.
