I see a problem with the hotel guide at <http://maribelsguides.com/mg_madridhotels.pdf>. After downloading about half the PDF file, further downloading occurs only as I scroll down in the file. The complete file downloaded only when I tried to view the last page. I saw a similar problem with a dial-up connection at Vanguard mutual funds. I wanted a form for converting part of an IRA to a Roth IRA. The PDF file was less than 500 KB but would stop at slightly over 200 KB. Nothing I did would result in the remaining file downloading. What was especially frustrating was that the form was only 8 pages out of 36 in the file -- 8 pages near the beginning of the file -- but the partially downloaded file could not be opened; the entire file had to download before I could open it. With a broadband connection, the problem went away. I suspect this is a server problem. The server might time-out without having sent all packets. -- David E.
