Trouble downloading OSX binary

I can't seem to get the OSX binary to dl properly. What I get is a dmg file that is about 12k in size and is, of course, useless.
Any clues?

I would say, you are downloading the mirror page

Not sure what that means, exactly, or how it is happening. All I did was click the download link.

Ok then. Once you click on the link on the download page, does it go to another page where you select which mirror you want to download from?

Nope. It just starts the download.

Rename that 12k file to one with a .html extension and open it in your browser. It will be the mirror page.

Why can't I use a download manager?

because you still haven't read the notice on our download page...
Please don't use a downloadmanager to download our releases and additional data files because the links below are not direct links, but links to a page that asks you to select a mirror.
I strongly urge you to read what we write on this site. There is valuable information to be found here (and peopel who get grumpy everytime they need to point to the text...)

Ok. Sorry. I failed to RTF. I admit it.
