Answer» I have a slow broadband internet connection. I tried dwnldg 500 MB file however due to abrupt interuption a power failure or dis-connection, such download fails. I use dTa Download Manager (firefox addon) and Orbit dwnlder but resulted in failed dwnld due to sudden interupption in internet connection.
I believe it's more to do with the site of the source file. I tried filehippo.com and brothersoft.com. I believe they do not support resumption of incomplete downloads.
I WANT to know which download site support resumption of incomplete downloads due to sudden dis-connection or is it software, if so which software would be good to dwnld large file without frequent "Failed Downlds" (I mean high or say highest success rate DOWNLOADER).
Thanks
Your best option would be to ask someone with high speed internet to download the file for you. What is the file, you're TRYING to download?Photoshop CS3 450+ MB in size. My comp is P4 so not trying CS4. Please review the Forum Rules. Topic Closed.Topic re-opened.
It's been brought to my attention there is a legal DLoad of this app as a trial version. I apologise for jumping the gun here.
patio.I once downloaded a demo of Far Cry, 500MBs, one week (8 HR days) on dialup. http://download.cnet.com/GetRight/3000-2071_4-10005533.html Give it a try.Hy Guys,
Currently I am trying Down Them All (dTa One Click) Manager to dwnld the 450+ MB file and the file is almost done while writing this post. As of now this has not once given a failed dwnld message/error even after n-number of shut-down/ reboot/ sudden crashes (both firefox & PC) since this dwnld started (i.e. past 3 days). Really Flattering.
I just hope that when the dwnld finishes it does not give the bad file/archive error.
This is in sharp contrast to the more fancy and widely used Orbit Downloader which on first or second attempt (dont remember exactly) gave-in (failed dwnlds). I suppose people should try to get the basics right first and then add more and more bells & whistles (features) to it so that the purpose of it is not defeated. That's where I think many, rather most people fail.
I also think GetRight should be fine too.
What do u guys thinks about the grand daddy of all i.e. Download Accelerator Plus (DAP).
Anyway thnks Guys Down them all is probably the best of the 3... Stick with what works i say....and DAP COMES with extra baggage...
