get star downloader for windows and download with that, it's a pretty
nifty download manager and free edition available.

 I can't really offer any solution - other than below - but I can tell
 you that I have had exactly the same.  I have tried to download some
 stuff not long ago and it too got so far then completely stopped.  It
 got to about 74% complete then the connection just dropped entirely to
 the server.  Not the BB connection itself just to that server.
 The only thing I can think of is try a different mirror if there is one.
