I've tried a couple of internet connections. I've also tried turning
off my FireWall and web proxy. No difference. I have also tried
changing the size of the dss image. I figured maybe I'm pulling too
big of a file, but I get the same results. About %80 into the
transfer it just hangs. File size doesn't seem to matter. Very
strange. My system is a W2K latest service pack.
