Single largest file you've ever downloaded?

I was just wondering what the single largest file you've ever downloaded is and what your connection speed happens to be. Well, more I'm wondering the size of the file, since I probably dont want to know what you guys (and gals) are downloading :Q

For me, it was 25.4 gigs (well, I guess it would be 25.4/ 10 RAR files, but since they were all part of one in the end, it counts). I'm on Comcast's 6Mb down plan at the moment, but I was on their 4Mb plan when I pulled that.


Thanks,

Endscape
 
around 8GB i think, it was a dual layer DVD iso image IIRC.

at the time i was on a 3mbps/384kbps cable connection, but recently got upgraded to 5mbps/384kbps
 
cd iso image on my uni lan, which took about 7 min or so, was awesome to watch considering the rents still have broadband at home and i'd still be downloading now on that bad boy
 
44.8 GB. I zipped my MP3 collection and downloaded it to my girlfriends computer. Both computers where on 10/10 Mb/sec

And no it wasnt a LAN

Mandrake Linux.. which I didnt end up using.. I got like 4 versions too because my damn TV tuner card wouldnt work (AIW Radeon).. each one was like 4gb (4 x 700mb).. so probably 20gb or so.
