Waiting Forever

I use dialup. The 1.2 patch was about 8.5 hours I think. But like the man said above, GetRight makes it much much easier to live with. Doing a DL in 4 or 5 chunks makes a huge difference. Just be warned though, not every server is GetRight friendly.

Or you can try Free Download Manager. It will support resuming if your connection breaks, and can also split up your downloads, and works with Firefox and Internet Explorer. Its available in a couple dozen languages or so. And its completely free.

What the hell are you all talking about? Downloading from email will take as much time as downloading from the web as someone already said here... Actually it'll take even more time because the file would have to be reencoded for the mail attachment format... Duh... :rotfl:

Heh. Don't I wish. I've had clients buy a new PC, pay for me to come out and install it for them, etc... just to find out that "we've got dial-up, we don't feel that we use the internet enough to pay for broadband." Or I know they can't get dial-up, 'cause I had to drive three miles down a dirt road to get there, and I seriously hope these guys aren't mostly-crazed people who have watched Deliverance too many times, since nobody's gonna hear me if I start screaming bloody murder.

I hate dial-up.

Anyway... so... to get this back on topic...
