Hmm this gets more and more strange. I'm trying to download the 
programme on a Linux laptop as RTMP seems to barf over the 4 GB limit on 
Windows but not on Linux. The Linux PC says it ain't there (as 
previously advised) but the Windows PC is downloading it normally (we've 
not got to the 4GB limit yet).
