    When I download any of the unity demo files it starts to download then after awhile says its complete (Even though it has only downloaded a few MB)

    http://unity3d.com/gallery/demos/live-demos#tropical-paradise

    With tropical paradise I get to about 4% before it says it has completed.
    I have used chrome and IE.

    With IE if I paused the download every couple of percentage points and then resumed I was able to get around 14% instead of the normal 4%.

    I see people are having a similar issue downloading Unity 4.2.

    Just tried it again, twice.

    Stopped at 30mb in IE and 35mb in chrome. (out of 145ish mb)

    I'm at work using a much faster internet connection.

    Worse comes to worse when I get home I'll download it off your mediafire link.
    Would be nice if Unity could fix this problem so I could get the other demo downloads as well.

    I tried again tonight to download from unity.
    Same results.
    Unity's downloads are still broken.

    @mgear
    I was able to download the demo project from your mediafire link, Thank You.
    Do you have any other demo projects up on mediafire?

    Which ones(s) you would need?

    Did you try using download helpers, flashgot or others? (it might help)

    I just googled flashgot.

    hmmmm seems a lot like getright, which I use to use like 15 years ago.
    Once I got rid of dial up I no longer needed getright.
    I'll get getright again and give it a try.

    I just tried downloading the Sewer Project which is only 30 MB and still have the same problem.
