asp_components thread: Ensuring an accurate download?

Does anyone know of a way to ensure the user actually receives a
download?
The system I am working on allows users to "check-out" documents from
the
server for editing. I can begin the download without any problems, but
if
the user cancels the download in anyway, or the power goes out,
connection
is broken, etc. Is there a way ensure the file was received properly.
I
cannot rely on ActiveX controls as I have to support older browsers and
especially Netscape (no plug-ins allowed). Thanks for any help on this.
Regards,
Rich

button...they click, you save...etc..

Any way around relying on the user? I have a feeling most of the users
of
this site are less than just worthy.
