Problem with your ISP/internet connection?

It's a small file. Move it over on a thumb drive (from a machine that
*can* download it). Even if that means downloading it at a friend's
home, public library, etc.

I'm not a big fan of Adobe , but flash is the format of a lot of
the video I'd like to stream , and I'm being blocked because I don't
have the newest version . Any suggestions for a workaround ?
BTW , I welcome suggestions from anyone who has a solution .
Criticism , not so much ...

It's not the small file , it's the main .exe install file that comes after
.. It stops at 50% ...

Load the exe file directly. Don't let something ELSE pull down what
you want/need. Look for a "network administrator install" (or "offline")
version (i.e., the sort of thing an IT department would download ONCE and
then install on hundreds of machines).
