It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

I've got a problem, maybe someone of you will be able to help me.
When I want to download something from my GOG account, it starts to download (I use Firefox), but when it reaches 100% (or 99% in IE), the download just freezes. It shows me that (for example while downloading Redneck Rampage) I have downloaded 607/607 MB (and it still shows download speed which remains there).
It is not matter of my browser (I tried Firefox and Internet Explorer), nor my internet connection (I have downloaded something from Rapidshare without any problems). I suspect my anti-virus (I use ESET Smart Security), but I can't find there anything about downloads in the settings. I suspect it because I can download any bonus materials from GOG without any problems, but those .exe installers don't work.
Does someone know what should I try?

Hmm, sounds to me like the file could be being inspected by your AV, because Kaspersky would just scan files all the time and would bog the thing down.
I suggest you try DownThemAll, Flashget, or the GOG Downloader to download your games and see if it helps.
How long have you waited?
Have you tried saving to a new download location? The root of your OS drive ideally.
Tried the GOG Downloader?
Do youhave any of the games that are over 2GB? Those have an exe thats rather small & the rest of the data is in BIN files, that would let you see if the issue is the .exe or of its the large files

Thank you, DownThemAll works.
Aliasalpha: to answer your questions -
-long enough to lose patience (canceled after ca 10 minutes)
-yes, it didn't work
-I tried it just from curiosity a month ago, it just sucks for me
-I have, but I didn't try them
EDIT: that 3MB .exe file from IL2-Sturmovik downloaded without any complications
