Having upgraded to Pro XE 05 and got my download link, I am having problems:

The file to be downloaded is 112Mb, but my download (FireFox) file says it is finished at 77MB; then when I try to install it says that my 'size returned' is lower than the 'size expected' (which makes sense).

Result is I cannot get the download version. Please help, DW

I suggest you use a download manager to download the file. Unlike Firefox and IE, it will be able to resume the transfer half way through in the case of a lost connection.

Have a look here:

Download Managers

GetRight works well, and I think you can get a free evaluation.

Dave

many thanks - actually, I did something a bit cheeky: I used a Linux system, download went fine and resumed when necessary. Now to explore all the new stuff!

:roll:

I don't understand why the people behind Firefox have failed to put this simple and obvious feature into their browser, but I suppose it's good for the download manager market.
