Default Download Problem - any suggestions?

I have just bougyht a new PC and I am in the process of downloading some of
the useful software I had on the old one, Mailwasher, Zone alarm etc. The
new PC operates on XP and is connected to my anytime account.. However
whenever I try and download anything after a few minutes i get a message
saying that the PC was unable to download "the whatever" because the server
was reset.

What does this mean and how do I get around it. Is it something in XP or is
it Anytime?

Any suggestions gratefully received.
