unbelieveable!

i tried downloading a 550Mb linux mandrake .iso file.
got 450Mb when the connection cut out!
then the file download wouldn't pick up where it left off.
the window closed and the file on the linux server, because it didn't
complete was deleted by the system!
aarrrrrrggghhhh

does anyone know of a way to re-pickup and continue on a download if the
connection cuts out and has to be re-established?
