Getting this trouble

Whenever iam downloading a file, it downloads to about 60-70% then i hear a "ding" as it should...but when the file is completed. Wich its not. Wich means i cant download any program to find out if i got some kind of virus or trojan
à did run the "SpyBot - Search & Destroy" -program, though it did find an amount of files that i removed, it didnt solve the problem
Anyone knows of this problem, and how to solve it

Thank

If using DSL check this out. Other wise clean your temp folder and your TIF
make room for large files.

Subject: Re: Download size limitation?

When I try to download certain Microsoft XP updates, such as .NET
framework, which are large files, the download stops at 4 MB each time.
I don't know if this is a problem with IE, Microsoft's server, or my ISP
(on a DSL). Is it a temp directory limitation? Is there something I should
tweak in the registry? I have a 40 GB hard drive which is about 1/3 full, so
that isn't the problem..

Does anyone have an explanation for this?

Then on another group someone said to decrease the value for the receive
window (RWin) setting (on a DSL tweaker) to half of what it was, and that
worked immediately. Something about with a too high RWin setting the server
thinks you are disconnected and stops sending the file. Anyway, it worked.
