Issues downloading

Can anyone suggest a download manager that actually works like it is suppose to?
I have been trying to download the bonus set (the backgrounds/overlays file to be specific) for HOURS and it keeps freezing up on me and I have to start over. I tried one download manager and it seemed to worked but it said this site does not support the resume download function. So it too froze after about 1/2 of the 235 megs was downloaded. I am on a 5 gigabit cable download. I disabled my firewall and anti-virus.
Is this just me or is there something with the site. It is so FRUSTRATING!!!
Thanks
Eliza

Hi Eliza - have you tried to download from the store by disabling your download manager? Try downloading using your default browser settings?

That is actually what I had been doing and got frustrated and tried a download manager then. I did get it to work using DAP. It actually let me resume after the download froze up 3 times. So I did eventually get them. Usually don't have this kind of problem but man today it was BAD!

wow, I have cable modem and it took a long time (well a long time to me is not practically instantaneous), a half hour for the whole mega kit. but I didn't get cut out or anything.

maybe alot of people are downloading at the same time.
