if you try to download the files in small amounts and check the show link icon this may help you to download them. Say 25-30 per download. _________________ NEW Tomtom GO 500 (hope it is good)

Stick to 22 and you will be safe, 25 Is absolute maximum but iffy. |

if you want to recombine them use poiedit and append the files into one. |
