Don't use a multi-stream download manager with the store, you could cause it to shut down the download. (if you've already started, let it finish though, but you may not be able to re-download) I'm really surprised you're getting such a slow speed, as far as I know the DR servers have plenty of spare capacity right now. I think this may be specific to your ISP/location.

Weird. I tried several times now. It always starts with 2mb/sec and drops to like 15k/sec within a minute. [:@]

What is that download manager some people use?

Not sure, but I assume DR is using several ftp servers and with some bad luck you catch a busy one.

That said, how often one can restart a download before they cut him down?
