    As long as your internet is stable click on it and let it download - its only the internet that will cause issues (i.e. it drops out) that means it wouldn't download if via the website. 

    Or, click on 'Add to Dropbox' assuming you have quota and it will download via your desktop software in 4mb chunks and not have issues if your internet drops.
