I use NT downloader,
In this programme , there is a facility to search for mirrors, well
there are many more than the programme comes up with, but that is 
because I limit
the search to 15, the messup this morning was on one of the two dutch 
sites, currently
I am on a UK site, but quite honestly it doesn't matter all that much. 
If you want a bit
more soffistication in choosing mirror sites , then getright is better, 
because not
only does it provide a list of mirror sites for you but it can be set to 
search the
net over a given period , say for every 4 hours, and then "ping" each in 
turn, assess
which is the fastest available , and relogs on at that site, this also 
has the advantage
that the preasure on the net is evened out some, which is a very good thing.
Unfortunately NT cannot, as yet do this, so you have to manually ping 
your mirror
list and choose for yourself.
