Downloading hangs on 99%

[Yardyy]

Hey dudes its me again,

I got another weird problem, When i download any files from internet, and site, .exe, .zips, .msi. etc... some of the files hang at 99%, one one occasion the download hung for about half an hour, before i cancelled it. It this does not seem to happen on all sites, or all file types, just a random thing that is happening more often...

I have tried downloading the same files from different computers, servers, and buildings. I came home the other day that was able to download this 2meg file easily, but could not at work.. we have Checkpoint NG FP2 installed, and i think that has something to do with it, i have tried logging but that shows nothing as the download is accepted.

Please can any one help... Regards

Yardyy

Look for the files in your temp web cache <if u haven't delted it yet> they may be there. I ran across this once where somebody disabled right click + view source on their web page. I really wanted to view their source so I just &quot;saved as&quot; their page...the download died @ 99% but I was able to retrieve the complete file by pulling it from my temporary internet files cache. Not sure if this will work in your scenario, but just in case you'll want to make sure the TIF cache buffer setting in your browser is set for @ least the size of the file you are attempting to download...prob. should set it for a few MB more, then clear the cache, then try the Download.

I have witnessed this type of behavior as well. If you are using IE a possible fix may be for you to uncheck &quot;Use HTTP 1.1&quot;. This is reported to work, though I haven't personally tested it.
