You could try using a download manager that support resuming of partial downloads like Godzilla, but your problem sounds strange. Does it stop at 25% every time you try? If so do you have enough disk space on your C drive?

It is a download manager. It allows you to que up many downloads for instance, and support resuming. That means that if the download stops for some reason it will try again and resume from where it stopped, so you don't have to download everything again.

No not the latest edition ... if you believe them. I don't use Gozilla or Getright anymore, but they are both good DL managers for beginners, and if your connection is unstable you need a manager for the large files.

I use CuteFTPpro for my FTP downloads, and ABC Bittorrent client for bittorrent files. Excellent programs.
