Whenever someone tries to download an .ISO they get an error:
Unknown Network Error.

try downloading the file locally, and see if there is any problem.

and ask someone else to download, to test.

Someone else did test, tried naming it .zip... still not working

The file is over 4gb, it's a bug with file size. I have had this before.

I hope you can fix this.

why you say it is a bug of HFS ?
most downloader doesn't support 4GB+ files, while HFS does!
what are you using as downloader?

Free download manager, I've downloaded 6gb files with it before.

HFS was tested with several downloaders for over4GB files
this is the list
- Reget Deluxe 4.1
- MetaProducts Download Express 1.7
- Getright
- Firefox 2.0


you can make other tests
1. downloading locally
2. using another downloader (from the list)
3. enabling log menu -> log what -> disconnections   (and see what gets logged on disconnection)

Okay cool, whenever the program I download with identifies as Free Download Manager 2.x it won't download from HFS, but when I set it to Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 it works..

So it still is a bug with HFS, because it's apparently not accepting Free Download Manager 2.x as the identifier to the server program.

it is an interesting information, but it is not enough.
the only place i can see in HFS code where the FDM identifier is used is serving pages for its browser, so i have no chance in fixing this supposed bug, since you say it is related to huge file downloading.
i told you several ways you can collect information about it.

A reasonably-quick, practical solution is to use WinRar to split up the big iso file into a number of smaller chunks. WinRar can do this automatically, and handle reconstruction at the user end.

This doesn't mean, of course, that I don't think any problems with transferring large files shouldn't be investigated.

you didn't read, herbi, his last reply: with a quick painless change in the downloader configuration, the problem disappears. ;)

Tested again with other programs, a lot of other download programs. Download Accelerator Plus works (takes a long long time till it downloads), others simply don't.
 
It is definitely an issue with HFS.
