Trouble downloading

[buckshot]

Can someone take a look at this thread in completed stories and figure out what is happening?

I reported to JDY as not downloading properly and he gets a good download.

I tried three different times and it always quit at the mentioned file size, about 13 - 1/4 of what it should have been.

It is in completed stories, under "I Love You Like a Brother, A Vignette" with the following header info (I did not know how else to ID it):

Are you downloading the .pdf? or the .doc
Are you using Internet Explorer? or some other browser?

Both worked for me - have you tried both? (if you have MS Word on your computer)

Have you tried rebooting your computer?

mnn2300,

I am using Google Chrome now.

I am downloading the .doc version which has the g behind the name and right in front of the dot.

I downloaded three of JDY's other stories (same format) with no problems at all. They all came out with file sizes just as he listed.

I use Word because it makes it so easy to bump the font size up to see it easier and read more before eyestrain hits.

Three times the "I Love You Like a Brother - A Vignet" file started to download just fine and then truncated at 37 or 39 KB (can't remember which now) but it is WAY short of the stated size.

I figured I had the process right since I had no problem with the other three.

Unless there is a download limit for a night, or something like that?

Just asking because three working right and then one croaking three times in the same place seemed rather strange to me.

No, I have not tried the PDF version, my older Word version won't handle .pdf files, just get gibberish.

Thanks,

Buckshot

There is no limit on the number of downloads from this site.
You might try using Internet Explorer as I also have no problem downloading it.
I don't use Chrome but both Internet Explorer and Firefox had no issue downloading it.

Thanks, I will give it a shot with Internet Exploder.

Just spooky that three would work and one did not. And that it died in exactly the same place each time.

Thanks,

I have a saying for time like these: "Stupid Computer!"

You can quote me.

Jerry,

Went back after it tonight.

Got it on the first pass.

You can add my saying (Freak'in Magic) to yours!

Thanks,
