    Hi, I've been trying to download F.E.A.R. combat (a free download). The download size is 1.76 gig and anywhere from 10 megs to 300 megs the download just stops. I've tried from several different sites and it will not download for me. Any know why?

    try using a "download accelerator" that supports resume. It will make multiple connections and hopefully speed up they process & if it fails and resume is supported you don't have to start from zero again.

    Hi, I ended up getting bit torrent. That finally got it done for me, and it only took 2 days lol.
