I grabbed the full patch after my third attempt. Nothing short of a miracle. Took nine hours total (33kbps). To keep my ISP from disconnecting me, I would periodically refresh a simple webpage (a tiny plain page I put up on my own webspace for this purpose) to let my ISP know I was still an 'active' connection. Biggest file my modem has ever downloaded in one gulp. It boggles my mind when poeple complain of sometimes getting "only" 15KBps off the CL server when the highest speed I have ever recorded was 4.4KBps. I can't fathom moving at 15KB let alone 150KB+ others are throwing around! Lammoth
