Trouble downloading large files

everytime I try to download a file larger the 22 meg it will stop around 10%
U have to stop download and restart. It will then finish the download. If I
use a download program such as Free Download I have no problems any ideas.
Thank you in advance

Re: Trouble downloading large files

Create a New User, Logon as that User and try a download.

If it solves issue you will have to transfer all to a new user and THEN
remove the old one. Be sure to back up files just in case. Give ownership
to the new user.
