Same problem - finally broke through with sheer perserverance.
Advice from another site was to go directly to the updates page for Office 2003 and
select SP1. Did this.
.......http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=9C51D3A6-7CB1-4F61-837E-5F938254FC47&displaylang=en......Selected
SP1:......
Office2003SP1-kb842532-fullfile-enu.exe.......
It hung up still at about 15Mb. I closed the download window and clicked again on
the SP1 link. The download window started back up right where it left off and completed
the 74Mb download. Hope this works for you. Tried to solve this alone for about
an hour before searching here.
