Yeah as it's only happening at a very specific 500mb it could be an ISP cap
or policy?

Sounds like it - you checked the agreement?
I'm not sure how they could enforce that though - some downloads
appear as a few if using download managers.

Yeah i know its a bit weird how it is at 500mb, its a mates internet that is causing the problems, he is on BT but is soon to be changing... see how it all goes then

Have you tried wget - ing the files?

nah not yet, mainly used usenet, will try it later and let u know the result... ive heard of problems with bad ram can cause d/l issues, poss next step to try, test the ram or download via another pc on the lan... At the moment all the downloading is done on the server

USENET!!!
the server may have a 500mb limit - it should (in theory) split it into parts to make up the whole file but it is possible that its not configure right or you client dont know how to handle fragments...

Right...
Ive tested all sorts and cant find the problem, the other pcs that downloaded fine are now giving problem too! So its not box specific. Ran ethtool -S eth0 to show errors, but dont see any, (just had a recent restart) is there any way i can send data live from one to another and live watch errors etc? check the data sends perfectly?
