It is/was the sheer number of people trying to download the file. I've got a commercial T1 line here for service, but its been pegged all weekend with download attempts. Thank you to Patrick for the mirror!!

Thanks, Patrick...
That did it! I was getting as high as 26kbs when trying to download the original, but that would still take too long for me (Firefox was reporting an estimated 4 hours).
At your mirror site, I was seeing 300kbs! Don't know how long it actually took, as I went to take a shower and shave while it was downloading, but Firefox was reporting 14 minutes when I left it. I typically see a little less than the estimated time when I download other files.
It was done when I came back.
Wonder if Matt's upload speed may be a problem? I know that here, on this DSL line I have, my download speed is 3-4mbs, but the upload is only 300kbs or so. If Matt's servers have the same limitations, that might explain some of the slowdown (as well as the number of people trying to access it).
