Hi all. I have been having the same problem. I checked and the above mentioned
file was indeed missing so I downloaded it, but it's just sitting there all

tried unsuccessfully to download a while back. Unfortunately I still have the
same problem. Any other suggestions? It's really been hit or miss. Some parts
download fine while others don't, and I always make sure to download the
required subfiles.
