      Firefox downloads stopping?

      Hi everyone,

      Both Friday and today, I started multiple simultaneous downloads in Firefox, and about half of them stopped. This is with completely different sites, and different stuff downloading, in each case.

      Has anyone had similar problems?

      In several cases, after a halt, I got "completed" after a while, only the download was only part of the file...

      Blessings,
      Lee

      how many downloads? That can happen in IE as well if you have too much going.

      I had about 4 downloads at a time...

      I guess I know the moral to this story! Don't gobble my food...

      Re: Firefox downloads stopping?

      Well, I had another problem!

      I downloaded the Fedora core DVD image, and the checksum doesn't match. Now the size is 2147484112 bytes, has anyone downloaded this, who got the same size? Or who got a bad md5sum checksum?

      I can't imagine data corruption on the way to the disk drive, but not everything I can't imagine is impossible...

      Blessings,
      Lee

      P.S. You took my ducky for a pet! Or maybe I took your kit cat.

      P.P.S. I'm not sure what this creature is, actually, it looks to be neither duck nor kitty...

      Re: Firefox downloads stopping?

      I see the cat now!

      Well, he hasn't seemed to mind thus far doing a stand-in for a ducky, too, though I don't know of many cats that could do a good duck imitation, so there may be some straining of credulity...
