I doubt it. Have you tried Free Download Manager?

Hi:

Can any of you get a complete download from the site I referenced? I
suppose it could have something to do with MS?

Thanks

Hi:

I have over 200GB of free HD space. I see it finishing up by transferring
data from the temp folder (approx 10 seconds) and it's indicating 99% with
l
second remaining.

I have had this happen in the past and normally when I wait for a few
seconds it will finally go to 100% and finish, but not this time. It just
hangs and when I hit Cntrl+Alt+Del it indicates process Not Responding.
I have no other trouble with any other downloads so my Download Manager
appears to be functioning properly.

Here is MS website that I am trying to download from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5B33B5A8-5E76-401F-BE08-1E1555D4F3D4&displaylang=en

Thanks

Hi:

I have upgraded to XP SP3 successfully through Windows Update; however, I
have tried to download the SP3 upgrade from Microsoft's website and the
download hangs at 99% with l second remaining.

I wanted to download the upgrade file and burn a copy of it for friends
with slower internet connections etc.

Is there anyway to be sure that I get a complete download file without it
always hanging?

Thanks
