Hi Daphne, thanks for the input!
I cleared my cache and created an incognito window to attempt the download again, but was having the same issue as before... Well, not exatly the same issue.

This happened one more time, but I was able to restart the download, and eventually recieved the whole file intact. I'm guessing this issue is related to downloading large files wirelessly, but I can't be sure. My desktop is too far away from my modem to try a wired download. The good news is, I was able to get the whole file down. Thanks again!
