If you have access to a shell account to your ISP servers, telnet to your
account and then kick off ncftp from there to get the file.  When
downloading many/huge files I usually use this method since the downloads
occur faster and then I download them from ISP account to my machine.  In
my experience, downloading this way has had given me better success rate.
