Right click the "Start" button on the desktop and select "Explore"
Go to the directory where the movie file is being downloaded and create a copy (Ctrl-C and then Ctrl-V) of the file being downloaded (the file should say 0 bytes but when the copy is made the file size will be the current amount downloaded)
Right click on the copy of the file that you just made and select Properties.
A dialog will be displayed with a tab across the top called "Preview"
select the Preview tap and the file can now be watched to ensure the file you are downloading is the correct file.
Now the difficult part... Someone has to actually download the file or make a fake .MPG file to notify the rest of us... with these little tricks in mind, you can save yourself lots of hours, so also save everyone else some time too...
