This is a .zip file, so if their web server supports partial downloads,
you can download only those parts that you need (first download the ZIP
index, find where the needed version is located, download that part).

IIIRC <http://www.movsd.com/source/zipdl.zip> (assembler application for
Windows) implements this trick (once, long ago, I added proxy support to
that application for someone ;) ).
