These days with DSL 30 Mb is not a big download, dial up users may want to use a download manager to combat time out problems.

Difficult to pin down the problem as I have download a fair few with all those + etc with no problem, I take out all those + etc to shorten the file name but after unzipping.

I am on DSL with fairly fast download speeds.

I use Firefox or IE same results with both though I think Firefox is a bit faster.

Often got download complete and winzip or winrar would show a deficit in the file size and come back with incomplete or corrupt file.

I've just managed to get a complete download. 25.3MB in 5m 54s. I have been using a download manager for some time, and it really helps.

D.

ps. Just tried to open it. I'm getting "corrupt file" :rant:

I've downloaded and unzipped via the link supplied by Leif. No problems! Thanks for that. Thanks also to Neville for the sounds.

And if you want to try a DL Manager that is free rather than pay for something like Getright or another this is the one I use - http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/

It does all the click capture if you want so when you click on a download link it starts up, or you can turn that off and copy paste URLs in to manage it. And other things I haven't even tried :)
