Download Suggestions

Having problems downloading?

Many problems can occur when downloading files from the internet:

- Network and connectivity issues and / or interruptions.

- Apache / Web scripts settings – by default the web protocol (HTTP) is NOT designed for handling large data transfers. This means that every webserver is optimized for faster page rendering instead of reliable file transfers. Furthermore there are many configuration timeouts and limits to prevent heavy and long web operations which might overload the webserver and slow it down.

- Browser problems – some web browsers, especially Microsoft’s Internet Explorer, have problems with handling large file downloads.

Download Manager

The best way to prevent downloading problems is to use a download manager.

Truedownloader is a free download manager/accelerator with good features like Pause/Resume downloads, simultaneous downloads, segmented downloads for acceleration .

Zipped Files

All of the downloads on this website are zipped in order to either compress the files and make them smaller, or to assist with less troublesome downloading.

If you need a program to unzip the files, I can recommend 7zip which is a free zip/unzipper for Windows.

PDF Files

All of the text documents on this website are compiled into pdf format, and it is recommended that you use the latest Adobe Reader to view them.

Adobe Reader is a free program and can be downloaded here.
