    Regards.
    I think that the site allows to downloas in 1 strech [through downloaders], as in case Dialup drops on the subsequent try the Downloader give an error
    "The file does not exist".
    It is very difficult [even impossible]for our SE Asian countries where Power Failures & ISP low speeds to get files larger than 2/3 MB.

    Can MajorGeeks Webmaster look into the matter.:rolleyes:

    Dependent on which download manager you use, some do not resume the links from Majorgeeks, in part this has to do with Ad-Blockers, Firewall settings you have installed or also to curb leeching of Majorgeeks bandwidth by sites who dont link to the actaul Majorgeeks download page but link direct to the file.


    Try this and see if it works for you http://www.majorgeeks.com/Download_Express_d449.html its a different free download manager ( dont install the advanced option as that is only a 30 day trial ), this downloader has been successful for friends and reletives of mine who are on Dial Up and have frequent cutoffs due to lost connection.

    Thanks for advice. I will try Australian Sites& suggested downloader. But I remember I tried with the well renowned Downloader [sorry I forgot its name]
    but there was no change in behavior of Site. It stopped @ a very specific size of file recurringly. Thanks

    Welcome to MG.:)

    I get great results from the Internode ( Australian) MG download link. :cool:
    In fact it is the only one I ever use, nowadays. I am on dialup for a few more days hopefully, but have a good phone connection.
    Best of luck in downloading.

    I had excellent results using Leechget, as a download manager, but currently do not use one.
    Leechget. www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=1821
    Free from adware, malware, spyware, etc.
    Free version only downloads one program at a time, though.:p Bazza

    I tried to download from Planet site of Majorgeeks. Now it shows "Resume" not supported. I hope U know the "Resume" property of website.
    I have taken a Snap of it & atached. I re-call now that on Redoing all for re-downloading the file "It did not supported Resume" by all downloaders I had used, like Fresdownload & DA [download accellerator].

    I hope

    That is why I suggested Internode. :eek:
    Much better results than using Planet Mirror, IMHO.:p

    I also suggested Leechget because of the resume function.

    Check out Must have free (MG) downloads http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?id=20
    for other alternatives. Bazza.

    However I am trying the Internode & see what comes up.Hope 4 best

    Ooop it is here & does not support Downloader & Savin as:is never completed in our countries due to Power outs

    Sorry for the delay. The Australian mirrors we do not own, so you should be able to use those. As for the USA based servers, we own them and they are protected by PHP scripts so people can not link to them basically meaning you can not use a download accelerator on those servers. I think this was explained, but wanted to make it official.
