Yep hapens with big files sometimes.  Also, it will happen if you browse the net while downloading or your machine hibernates.

a download manager such as GetRight might help as well.

I always use Go!Zilla

You can get the bulletproof FTP addon, makes reliable downloads on unreliable connections.  Or so they say.
