Maybe that is it in a nutshell: it is not a size constraint, but that Yahoo! servers monitor an online download session, and cut it off after a specified time. That would explain why modem dialup users, taking longer for the data to arrive, would get cutoff and you wouldn't.

They're on the backbone, so location should be an issue. But how about it, folks? If you've had trouble downloading and you are either a cable modem user or have a DSL line, report in! I'm betting that download speed may be the culprit here, and if that is the case then I have further issues with Yahoo! to deal with...

No, that thing in the Tupperware in the back of my fridge is strange; this is just technology.

Hi Jon

I am on cable modem and also got cut off for Talismandala, so I don't
think tht is the full solution.

Went back just now to try redownloading it and can't find it. Jacky
did you remove it?

That's the most profound thing I've ever read in these pages! I'm going
to have nightmares now.
