This file is also available divided into 6 parts of 14 MB. Did you try that? Alternatively, use an FTP app. (like Fetch) Google for "Mac_OS_9.2.1_Update.smi.bin" ftp and you'll find several FTP sites where it is available. Overseas sites might have foreign language versions, so choose a local one. (eg ftp://ftp.oit.pdx.edu/help/macos/) If that fails too, I'd check with your ISP. Maybe they're choking off big downloads. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
