Help with download large file (~50mb) from http protocol

843790Mar 12 2010 — edited Mar 12 2010

I'm just using the default HttpURLConnection to download a large file from a server, I can never finish downloading before I get this exception:

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
	at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:168)
	at java.io.BufferedInputStream.fill(BufferedInputStream.java:218)
	at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read1(BufferedInputStream.java:258)
	at java.io.BufferedInputStream.read(BufferedInputStream.java:317)
	at sun.net.www.MeteredStream.read(MeteredStream.java:116)
	at java.io.FilterInputStream.read(FilterInputStream.java:116)
	at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection$HttpInputStream.read(HttpURLConnection.java:2446)
	at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection$HttpInputStream.read(HttpURLConnection.java:2441)
        ...

The file is on IIS web server, its a static file, not a server script, web service, or anything special. I usually can download 10-30 mb before this exception occurs. I'm using java 1.6.0_11 on windows xp, anyone have suggestions or experience downloading large files with java?
