Just downloaded bl3-01.zip from the link Steven recently provided.  I used
BL3.00 for this, and it worked normally: no hangs, interruptions or
aborting.  I used both links and wget to test this, and both worked as
expected both times.  Again, this is over an ethernet connection to the
'net.  So, I cannot recreate any downloading problems with BL3.00.
Either it has something to do with the dialing and downloading/web
browsing interface, or is some other highly localized problem on a
particular setup.
