    i guess the internet connection would have got disturbed again and again , resulting in the incomplete download. But i then went  to my friend's place who has a different ISP and was able to download it in a single time.

    The download is a link. How do we put the https in front?

    yes its the internet provider problem. 

    What does that mean?  The ISP is caching the file?  Incompletely?  Obsoletely?  Perhaps you could have tried using HTTPS instead.   No caching possible then.
