Vegas 9 Seminar DVD - download keeps failing

I'm up to my 4th or 5th attempt to download Sony's Vegas 9 Seminar DVD over the past month, any suggestions what might be going wrong? Today I used Opera and it got to 3.1 GB then said "Error" (in the Transfers tab). And the zip file was rejected as "Corrupted".

Previous download attempts were via FireFox. Wary of using IE as it is the only thing (to my knowledge) in recent times to have let in nasties to my system (from a proper normal website).

I think I have 1 or 2 goes left, not sure what happens after that, but I dread the possibility of it being physically posted (time, getting lost, customs duties etc.) so need to be careful with my last 2 "bullets".

Send an email/call Customer Service tomorrow, explain the situation and ask them what their suggestion is.

I've downloaded countless gigs of content using www.internetdownloadmanager.com -- I don't download without it... for many years now, highly recommended...

Could your ISP be throttling your downloads?
