I've struck that problem too .... the image has been changed a few times (beta / RC1 / RC2 / RC3 / RC4) so possibly that has something to do with it, plus several of the sites are very slow so they timeout constantly. Unfortunately its not possible to get all the ISOs from local mirrors .... since lots of people probably need to get them from the one or two sites that do have the latest one its not surprising that the poor thing is overloaded !!!!

  Subject: CD Image


  I have tried continually to download the CD image for version 4.3 and it will not give it to me... It immediately says "error occured during transfer". I would like to try this software and possibly switch to it instead of windows... Is it possible you could send it to me or give me a better location to download it? My email box size is unlimited it you want to send it as an attachment... I have a DSL connection so bandwidth isn't a problem either...

  Thanks,
  Ken Powell
