1232161 2011-09-19 04:14:00 are you using a download manager? I know with down them all in FF I can stop and start downloads in part gary67 (56)
1232162 2011-09-19 04:20:00 nope, just downloading it from here msdn.microsoft.com and clicking save file GameJunkie (72)
1232163 2011-09-19 04:22:00 Depends on what browser you are using.

If you were using IE8, simply reopen the browser, then either go to tools - View downloads, or press ctrl+j to open the download windows, click on resume and it will carry on from where it stopped.

1232167 2011-09-21 01:06:00 Try http://aria2.sourceforge.net/

Might be able to get it to resume the file, but without a download log (you didn't use aria2 on the download already) you need to set a special command-line switch. Can't remember what it was now.

1232168 2011-09-21 01:41:00 university is blocking your link Agent_24 GameJunkie (72)
1232169 2011-09-21 01:46:00 It may be because that program can support bittorrent downloads as well.

But if they block the entire Sourceforge site, you should loudly complain!

try direct link here: downloads.sourceforge.net ts%2Faria2%2Ffiles%2Fstable%2Faria2-1.12.1%2F&ts=1316565839&use_mirror=superb-dca2

Or if you can access rapidshare etc I could upload it to there for you
