I use McAfee. I tried it with firewall turned off, I got further, but it
still hung up.
I was still connected to internet.
I tried to reload openoffice 2 and it also would not save to Desktop.

Is there any information in your firewall's log?
When the download stops and your system churns, are you *sure* you still
have an internet connection?
Is your browser stopping you downloading from what it thinks is an
untrusted site?
Is Vista's UAC preventing you from downloading the file?
Is the problem repeatable? Always 16%?
What speed is your internet connection? Does your ISP limit the amount
of data you can download? Are you hitting such a limit?
You can buy OpenOffice on CD/DVD for not much more than the supplier's
cost of production plus P&P. There's a list of suppliers at
http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom although we
don't make any recommendations or give any guarantees. Any arrangement
between you and one of the listed suppliers is exactly that - between
you and the supplier. Many of the suppliers on that list provide the
software on CD as a service to those who, for whatever reason, can't
download it themselves.
OpenOffice is also distributed free on many of the CDs/DVDs that come
with computer magazines. Just ensure the magazine is relevant to your
Operating System (Vista, I think you said).
