before ripping into your computers settings and proxys, first determin if the link does work with other people. 99% of people believe that its their own computer when in fact the problem is where you are connecting to. you say that it states an internal server failure, and as the server is where you are getting the file from, chances are there is a fault is NOT with your own machine. There are many reasons that this fault have occoured, like loading on the server (many people asking for the same file at the same time), down for maintance(you requested the file while they took the server down for a reboot or something)...
What is the link in question? and are there others that are getting the same error with the same link?

in having a look arround, if you are refering to the post titled "There's Hope For Us All... " then the link works fine for me, and I can only determin that as I did not use a proxy for this download, that your firewall might not be allowing certin information to be sent to the server for the transfer.
to prove the point (DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK) disable your firewall and try the download again.

many thanks for your continued help, but no - the error message simply reads
"the file download of ... was not completed successfully. Server has internal error"
have tried aol, and IE so far.
will try firefox and report back
all further suggetsions very welcome from anyone who has faced and sorted similar problem with turboupload or any of kizzie's other posts
