    Hello,
    I was recently downloading a large file, the Company of heroes demo, which weighs in at 1.8 GB, and firefox crashed at 93%. I still have the .part file, it's 1.58 GB, and was wondering if there was any way to continue the download. It took me 7 hours :'(.
    Thanks

    Open, FF, then hit CTRL + j, then click the re-try button.

    Otherwise, ye may have to use an alternative download program. FF 3.0 MAY have a resume download built into it.

    Try:

    FreshDownload

    Fresh download, will need to download the file fresh. It won't load the .part file.
