just do what i did... leave it running.

if you have a cable modem, just let the download run and go watch a football game or go see a movie.

or, if you have dialup... let it run for as long as you can. hopefully it will pick up where it left off if the connection cuts out.

it definately takes time, but be patient. it\'s worth it.

If you download using the bittorrent, you can pause and resume the download as you please. personally I like azureus (http://azureus.sourceforge.net)

after you download, the game\'s included updater will be able to pickup where you leave off if you lose your connection while updating

Edit: shame on me for not using the preview button :P

As long as you have a  dowload manager that will elt you resume you can, sometimes the downlead will be corrupt though, it took me 14 hours to download it, and it was corrupt, so after 28 hours of downloading, I finally got i. Some of my freinds haev had the same problem. That is okay though, as the game is awsome
