Browsers aren't really the best things to download large files with. For huge
files like ISOs, rsync is the best method (provided the server supports it). For
everything else, download managers like Downloader for X (NT) or GNOME Transfer
Manager (GTM) are excellent. A good FTP app like gFTP or IglooFTP can be useful
as well.
