    I've been trying to download Vista drivers for my HEL80, but the large files stop downloading not long after the download starts. I'm attempting to download from: http://www.bizcom-us.com/support/TechSupportDriversDownloadPage.htm#EL80. Anyone have any suggestions on how to successfully download the larger driver files?

    I'm using Mozilla Firefox v2.0.0.4 with the Download Status Bar plugin. I've also tried MSIE v7 and get the same issue.

    Have you tried a stand alone(not one built into IE or FX) download manager like Flashget or Download acc plus?

    I use to use them when i had 56k and had to dowload large files (Americas Army-700mb in about a week give or take a couple of days).

    No, I haven't tried a download manager as I have never needed one since dialup days. Firefox has one built in I think, so I'll disable Download Statusbar and see if I can download the large files.
