Microsoft download manager akamai2/15/2023 ![]() ![]() The icon on hte desktop to resume the download launches IE, which in turn re-starts the download ![]() If, however, the download manager is closed for any reason, then it's tickets. The ActiveX control kicks in and starts the download, no problem. ![]() I can log into the Microsoft partner portal and begin a download (although it forces me to use the Akamai download manager which is frustrating - why not allow your customers/partners to choose their own download managers if they so choose?).

The download manager has no configuration so I assume it's reading the IE proxy settings. A resumption file was created for your convenience on the Desktop." My IE6 has proxies properly configured (I'm behind a corporate firewall) and I can browse any web page. The error message provided is "A download was halted before completion. 0% of the file is downloaded but a 2GB file is allocated in my filesystem en_msdn_library_for_visual_studio_2008_x86_圆4wow_dvd_. ![]() I'm trying to download the MSDN library iso image for VS 2008, "en_msdn_library_for_visual_studio_2008_x86_圆4wow_dvd_X14-29217.iso", and it has an error immediately. ![]()
