Don't you hate it when...

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

...you're downloading a CD image (don't worry, it's Linux so it's legal), which takes 90 minutes to download, and the download stalls at 4 minutes remaining, and it can't be resumed?

IE doesn't even support resume! That's the LAST time I'm EVER gonna use IE for FTPing !! :mad:

SmartFTP is the shiznit if you want an FTP client.

I also like Getright because it will automatically redial your connection if it gets cut-off and hang-up when it's done. It also automatically searches for alternate mirrors and segments files for a quicker download.

Using IE for downloading anything is questionable at best (says the man who does it daily). For anything that may take a while and you don't want to curse and start over, you need a "download manager"....

... a "download manager"... wtf, M$? :mad:
