MSDN download issues

[DeveloperX]

I'm starting to lose my rag. My Internet connection has stayed up but
for the third night running I've had a fatal error downloading VS 2008
pro at about 60pc on MSDN. Is anyone getting any joy on this? I'm not
paying for shipped DVD's because MS can't figure out how to deliver
content online. I believe I bitched about downloads you could(n't)
continue about five years ago, so this rag has thinned some what.

In response to "Is anyone getting any joy on this?", I've downloaded it
no problem the day before yesterday, and installed it perfectly too.

I realize you said that the internet connection has stayed up, but have
any packets been dropped?

Also, I would tend to agree with you over the lack of a continue option.

I've no idea what's going on. I've downloaded plenty of other things
in the last week from MSDN, but this one is just not happening. Oh
well, I'll try again :(
