I do have a question regarding ftp downloads.....
I was advised to find an ftp site to download this file. If, in the event
I experienced the same problems downloading again, I could just go to
the site again, and pick up where I had been "let off." I tried this,
and interrupted the transfer at 100kb. When reconnecting, it just opened
the 100kb that I had already downloaded, and made no further attempt to
download the rest of the file. Is it something I did, or was it the browser?
It was Netscape Communicator 4.2, BTW.

You might also try the program GetRight:

It is great for downloading files - especially large ones.
