That happens to me when I'm downloading mp3's and multitasking on the side,
with lots of memory resource hogs running.
A reboot and a download of the same mp3 without all the TSRs and multitasking
programs open cures that.
I've made a permanent giant swap file, I've got 256 of mem and tons of hard
drive
space, but Windoz severe limitations on memory use seem to screw the pooch at
times.

Try dl'ing it without all those open programs running in the background.

If that doesn't work, clear out a lot of space on one of your hard drives or
partition it
up so you can do so to get 300-400 mb of free space and then make your swap file
that size.
