sorry, I don't think you can. But go out and buy the next issue of a good computermag like "Windows & .NET Magazine", I'm sure they will include the big file on the CD-ROM

How sad am I? I downloaded the entire 130MB SP on 56k dial-up...
I love working in ITS for an EDU. I downloaded it in about 5 minutes (OC3)
But I know about the 56K thing. That is all I have at home. I would just either do a getright session on it or find a friend with broadband and get him to d/l it and burn it to a CD. One could also check out the local computer geek store and see if they would d/l it or burn it for you.

Well I downloaded SP3 via ISDN (around 7,5kb/sec )
Well if you don't pay per minute like I am then it's no problem to wait 5 hours for such a thing
