Please complain to your Internet Service Provider for such a bad service.
I here in Germany get 7 KB/s (aka saturated ISDN line) from that very
server.

Possibly; some people may offer these Update Packs without authorization
from Borland. Please go to 

  http://ftpsearch.lycos.com/

and try to locate the filename that gives you the trouble when downloading
from the Borland web site.

NOTE: Borland of course cannot guarantee that files from servers other
than their own will work correctly and do not contain trojan horses /
virii.
