All; Just downloaded the last 3 packages using freedownloadmanager - took about 2 minutes total on a 30MB baud download connection via cable: below is a link to the non-commercial, open source download manager that will run multiple thread downloads, allows restarts for failed file downloads and in general speeds up downloads on connections that aren't fast to start with and is amazingly fast on fast internet connections (like high speed cable). And yes, your mileage may vary.
I have used this for nearly ten years and have never had a problem. Oh yeah, it is ad/commercial free like most open source applications. Make sure you use the .org link because there is a similar application with almost the same name that is buggy and is loaded with Trojans. http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/download.htm Mark W.

I just downloaded all 4 files and they seem to be fine. They are between 33 and 42 Meg each and on a quick cursory inspection seem to be complete. I do have a fast Internet connection at home 16Gig download average.
