I've made 4 attempts to download the 3.4 iso file from the ftp site (or one of it's mirrors) and each time I end up with a file of anywhere from 350 to 450 Meg in size, even though my download window states I've downloaded 617 Meg.  Any idea what I may be doing wrong? I've checked all the obvious and cannot find anything set wrong. I was able to download the redhat iso file without any problems, so I'm not sure what I may have wrong. At this point I think I'll be better off ordering the CD's, but I am curious about what I've got wrong.
I'm also curious about the port scans I received back from ftp2 on ports     113|2338|2340-2341|2976-2978. Was this because of my 4 attempts to download the file?  I only saw the activity on the third and fourth attempt.

Thanks for any information.
