305066 2004-12-18 09:41:00 Bazman - a iso file is a image of a cd that in most cases you have on your hard drive, with iso files you can easily open them in a cd burner app and burn them to a cd with ease noone (22)

Translation:


Hi, You don't know me, but can you waste some of your miniscule allocated bandwidth cap to download this file, with an odd filename, of which I have no description .

Once you've got it, I have no instructions as to what you should do with it, in fact I haven't really asked nicely . Furthermore, I haven't told you where I live, or how I anticipate receiving it from you - nor any remuneration for your time or efforts . Whats stranger is this is my first post, using a nickname no one recognises which is likely to endear my case even more .

I'm now going to say thanks, though I don't know why, nor do I really mean it .


Incidentally I downloaded and deleted it, just for giggles . :thumbs:

Lmao you're so evil :lol:

To the original poster: use a resuming program like flashget, getright, opera . Hell I used to download 700mb files on 56k . 56k is no excuse for not downloading . bet it would only take overnight .

Yes, it is a Live Linux Cd.
I am in Hamilton.
I am happy to pay someone for their time/cd etc, I was simply wondering if other people could get a reliable download or not.
I have had a go with a download program but suffered the same problem.
I routinely get files of this size on dial up overnight, normally using gftp (Linux).
Sorry if I sounded a bit vague.
