• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

orbx-ftx-global-130 download problem - help?

First off, running WinXP 32 bit using Firefox, target drive has around 60 gig free space.
There are two download links to choose from, these are 4.41 gig files.
I tried each using standard download which usually works, both ended after a few minutes and a few hundred thousand bytes.
I then installed FlashGet 3.7 (one of the three download managers recommended by flightsimstore) and tried downloading again.
Both stopped at 84.3% and would not get past that, even trying pause and start several times.
Tried again later, one stopped at 84.3% again and the other link at 82.9%.

Any ideas if this is an XP, flightsimstore, or Flashget problem?

Thanks in advance.
 
I had no problem and use Internet Download Manager. Hopefully some person
can help here. Maybe try Orbx Forum or contacting Adrian at FSS.

Internet Download Manager seems to be the answer. Use it myself and had no problems at all. I had the same type of problem many times with large files but IDM had solved that thanks to the advice of many here at SOH.
