Intermittent Server Issues

Monday, 12th May One of our download servers is currently offline due to a hardware problem. This is causing extreme load at the moment which is resulting in some downloads getting terminated or disconnected before finishing. Please note we are aware of this problem and working on it as a matter of the utmost urgency. In the meantime we encourage users to use a download manager to help minimise problems downloading. Downloads should resume normally (and almost immediately) if your connection is broken. Apologies for the inconvenience.
