downloads hang 99

I wonder why my downloads hang at 99% and never finish that last 1%?
thanks

Is this downloads from a network share ?
If it is download from internet etc, posting in client.networking or tcpip newsgroup might help.
Thanks ~ Prashanth

I had one sit at 99% for a long time, but it did eventually finish. I do the big ones from MSDN library as overnighters now because they can take forever. Even with decent bandwidth.

Do you have Defender installed? If so it is likely Defender checking it out.

Default install of Vista does install Defender. I don't have the same result on my XP machine where I have installed defender.
