How to use LabVIEW to download a 4MB zip file from a web site?

I have the internet toolkit.   I can't get it to download a 4 MB zip file from a web site.   Has anyone done this?
 
Thanks,

There is a way to do it using Datasocket.  Check out this thread:

I tried it with a zip file and it worked.

 

Good Luck

You can use the URL Get HTTP Document VI. Feed a full path (with the file name) into the appropiate input and it will save the zip file to that path.

Ah Ha! Adding the filename to the path input made the "URL Get HTTP Document" VI work for me.

Thanks tst!
