It was at about 15 minutes remaining, so I decided to go run a quick errand that would take about that long. There were still 15 minutes remaining on the download when I got back.

Then I was down to 10 minutes. Then 7.

Now there are 20 minutes remaining.

I think I will leave and hope that the download speed does not drop under 1 KB/sec and still be running when I come in tomorrow.

I was thinking about pausing it and restarting when I got home, but then realized that I have once again forgotten the password to my wireless router. The next time I hack it and reset the password, I am making a label and sticking that to the frickin' thing.
Are you still using:


That could be your problem.
