The Ffox plugin that I already have does all that. Anyway, I took your
advice and tried a different mirror. It worked OK, 390MB 1hr 30mins on
my talktalk "up to 8Mb" connection. Actually runs at best 65KB/sec !
Installed it to lappy now so the fun is just beginning, nothing
working so far. Distro is Zenwalk, Xfce all new to me.

Great stuff :-) it was obviously a tempremental mirror, you get them
sometimes. You'll love Zenwalk when you get used to it. It is
different to KDE but similar in looks to Gnome. There are some very
good bits of documentation on the site, I recommend you read them :-)
Actually, you are coming to Xfce at a good time. They've just
included a new - far better - file manager. I forget the name but it
is far superior to the old one. There have been a number of other
significant improvements by all accounts in Xfce.
