It refuses to download the complete file on my computer.
I downloaded it again, this time I only got a 2 meg file.

What browser or download manager are you using to download it?

Why don't you get broadband? Dialup is incredibly lame.

Not everyone can afford broadband or higher.
Is there another solution?

Comcast to Offer $10 Broadband to Low Income Homes

One of the few conditions faced by Comcast when they acquired NBC
Universal was that the company had to offer $10 broadband to any
household making less than $20,000 a year. It was actually a condition
Comcast volunteered, and this week the company was in Chicago to
announce that their "Internet Essentials" program will go live this
fall.

According to Comcast, every household in Comcast's footprint with
children who receive free lunches under the National School Lunch
Program (NSLP) will qualify. Qualified homes get Comcast XFINITY Economy
broadband service (1.5 Mbps down, 384 kbps up and usually offered for
$25 if we're not mistaken) for $10 a month, the opportunity to buy a PC
for $150, and access to digital literacy training.

Comcast says the program will run for "at least three school years,"
though any household that qualifies during this period will remain
eligible for the discounts as long as a child in the household still
qualifies for the NSLP (you can find NSLP qualifications here, pdf).
