Two things:
* If the server is slow, try another one. Use the radio buttons at the
top of the page. NEVER use the European server, even if you're in
Europe. I can get over 300 KB/s from the US servers, but never more
than modem speeds from the European server...
* The browser will load the FTP-helper application to download the
files from ADC. Apple doesn't provide an UI for setting protocol helper
applications (!!!), but it can be done from various third party
applications - for example the preference pane of Internet Explorer.
