Yah, tried that..
It really is strange, I have never seen a dl behave like that.
It just gets to this one point (14MB) then it jumps from 3 percent complete to 100 percent complete.. and all I am left with is the first minute or so of the video.
I can't imagine why this would only effect my computer, especially after the server side warning wmp gave me when I tried to play the streaming version.

Someone mind trying to dl the file, the whole file.. and see if the jump from 3 percent to complete happens to them? Cause it definitely appears to be dl'ing fine, right until you get to 14-20MB downloaded, then it goes FUBAR.

yes, I have received the problem since it was reposted after Dennis It is definitely some kind of server side problem. Maybe a download limit or server being overloaded. There has been a lot more traffic to the site with hurricane season in swing. The most I have been able to d/l at once with a high speed connection is about 120 mb. That was one time late at night.

I don't know if there is anything Mike can do to help us out here... it is a very large file... maybe host it on another server? I'm just hoping one time I get lucky... although the problem will compound since it causes one to have to re-d/l the file from the beginning every time he gets kicked. I could have downloaded it 5 times+ by now! :-p
