the reason it's taking so long is that the server is probably crap. look on the gearbox site and forums, and try out google.

direct link to downloads.com download.

Oh, it doesnt matter anymore, know when i try to install halo ce, it asks me for a 'product key' wich i didn't get. i got a 'cd key'

Product key = CD key.

Actually yeah, Bungie may seem like the perfect mirror, but since it's official and everybody uses that, it would be better to find a mirror that isn't very popular, that way you get most of the bandwidth.

In fact, that's the reasons they have different mirrors.

No, it is indeed asking for your Halo PC CD key. Just type that in and it'll work.
