Does the Sidefx download-server support resumable downloading?
If so, what software do I need?
I tried using GetRight, feeding it the url that Opera decoded :
http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_download&Itemid=208&page=license&version=8.1&build=704&platform=win32 [sidefx.com]
… but it goes to an "index.php' instead.
I'm on dialup and have a flaky connection. Despite that, I have managed to download the ~80meg install.
Frustrating when my connection dies and I have to start over for another ~6hours

I've also used GetRight (with firefox) to download Houdini builds, but I swore that it just *looks* like its going to download index.php but really ends up downloading the full installation instead.

I get the “View in Getright Browser / Is a login page …” dialog popping up when I paste the URL into GetRight.
For whatever reason, sometimes Getright intercepts the URL from the browser, other times it doesn't.
Oh well, I just used Firefox directly, and amazingly last night it downloaded it without my connection breaking
