Thanks very much, it all seems to download fine now...but...

I burned it all to CD:

But installing it on an NT machine broke setup.exe. It started off fine,
checked all the MD5s down as far as lilypond-2.2.5-1, and then popped up
a window saying:

The NT system is fully updated, and I'm not a Windows person, so I'm 
stuck at this stage. Clicking OK aborts the setup.
