If your ISP is a local one (not like AOL) you can ask them to download it for you. It worked for me so you might give it a try. As for the FTP problem, they have FTP close at the firewall. Talk to someone nice in the IT Dept. Maybe they will download it for you, enable FTP for just that download, or maybe already have a copy. Hope this helps.

At work I have higher bandwidth, but have a problem with the proxy server not letting me get through to the FTP Server. I can, though, get a download via HTTP. Any suggestions how to obtain the file through the HTTP proxy?
