download may stop responding (hang) and the Active Setup may stop working
properly. You may eventually receive an error message even though the
download appears to be hung.

To work around these problems, follow these steps:
- Download the Minimal version of Internet Explorer, which is the
smallest package available.
- Once the download is finished, run the Active Setup Wizard again to
download additional suite components. When you do so, the Wizard tells
you which components you have not yet installed.

Traffic on the Internet, the number of users also attempting to install
Internet Explorer, or the connection provided by your Internet service
provider can affect the rate at which you are able to download.
