Symantec's distribution of downloads utilizes a third-party content delivery 
network (Akamai) to ensure high availability for our customers, and to 
preclude any problems with specific servers (for example, off-line for 
maintenance reasons, or extremely heavy server load) or with the Internet 
(for example network congestion).

(taken from the Symantec website, just search on Akamai)

Just not sure where the http://a240.g.akamai.net came from in the middle

help.
