The MS download (when available) should go through local bandwidth anyway.. when it's on microsoft.com I'll get it.

Upload your LAST SESSION.INI from nLite somewhere and I'll have a look (usually nLite keeps a copy on the root of the CD also).

Heh, Occam's Razor prevails, there was me thinking it might be a problem with the actual CD :p

Seems like nobody reads my posts on this forum... I've mentioned how many times that it will be possible to download locally from microsoft's servers.
:rolleyes:

Microsoft's link works on local!

Come on now people...

You can download most stuff from microsoft on local if you have a direct link!

Just run a traceroute to the links on local and you'll see.

Dude you are downloading from Microsoft US ".com" directly not SA

The akamai servers allow us to access it locally, I don't know how the technology works, somebody should shed some light on this but I have been downloading locally from microsoft since last year, Apple uses Akamai as well and I download locally from them as well (like itunes, quicktime and OSX updates)
