	One suggestion I have is to try and change the buffer size.  Its under
the external options in the transfers pulldown menu.  I had a similar problem
with it aborting downloads of over 100K.  What happend was the buffer would
overflow before it could be completely written do disk.  If you have a hard
drive, set it higher, if not, set it lower (I user 8K).
	I hope this helps.
