Not a good idea - for a 100% genuine source for Vista, select the download
from the Windows Vista homepage.

This is a genuine source, it just allows you to get the actual direc
download link into your download manager. That way, you can let i
handle the restarts, ect.

I don't know why but both my PCs are picking this up as a 13.7Mb file?

I'm using any download manager, and others seem to have the same problem.

IE6
XP Pro SP2

Any ideas?

Is that just the 64 bit version? I downloaded the 32 bit from there no problem

That's because FTM5 overwrote FTM4 - that's why the bug occurs with percents
going into the hundreds. It still works fine - but to get the standard %'s
back, uninstall FTM then install it again from here:

It's a server error - they're working on it.
