Download img problem

I try to use some download managers like Flashget to download IMGs of Orcas products, but they fail. I can understand you need a steady network flow, but would you make your download on IE7 smarter a bit to continue the previous download.

May be you miss those days using 56K modem to take a download for 20 hours. Moreover you still could use flashget or gozilla at those day. It is a kind of suffering when you put your computer to download a file for several hours and it happens that it just stuck there.

Please improve your products. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback Antony and I'm sorry to hear you've been having problems downloading Beta 1. Instead of downloading the IMGs, I'd recommend you use the "downloader" version of the Express products which is a much smaller download that then downloads the components you need itself (using a built in download manager). Here's a link to the Express download page (click on any of the banner images to download the "downloader" version).

If you're trying to get one of the non-Express Orcas Beta 1 versions then I'd recommend trying to download the "self-extracting" version of the package instead. It's multiple files so it's not as easy as just one download but they are each much smaller and easier to download. Here's a link to the Pro version of Orcas Beta 1 via self-extracting files.

Hope that helps.
