Could you break it up into smaller zip files that I could down load
over a period of days?
     

Two immediate options, besides using a download manager (see
<http://download.openoffice.org/index.html>)
   

I just downloaded OOo 1.9 over dialup and my dialup is 21600 at best. With 
dialup anything over 5meg is a big download and needs a download manager IMO. 
I used wget (since I'm linux based) and downloaded OOo over a few sessions in 
two days...

I use Getright on win2K and set it going before I go to bed.
I am happy to say that the Telco guy has been up the road in the last 
couple of days and I've been getting 33K connection and 3.6k download 
since.  a vast improvement   My cup runneth over!  ;)

Getright terminates the connection  when the download is completed.  
Painless.
