Can you check your internet usage for the day? That folder may already be unpacked, and therefore a lot more than the size of the download (here's hoping...)
Failing that, fancy express mailing a parcel to Cape Town tomorrow?

I might have persuaded Greg to buy it and DL it for the CT contingent...

suprisingly I only had 1.5Gb left on this CAP, clicked on download this morning before going to work ... it finished @ 6:30 (was DLing @ 425Kb/s) I don't think the 6Gb is far off.... will check out the stats tomorrow to see the True usage. but @ midnight I expect this account to die - so i got another one to get me to the end o the month . .. .
EDIT: o and i know the steam monitor is WAY useless, but IT said I download 13GB today ....

Wow, yesterdays Steam download officially = 7128.98Mb or 7.1Gb - it was ALL international, but somehow my account STILL isnt capped? Weird!

Gimme your account details so I can download quick... 
Any chance of a backup winging it's way down to CPT?

It's weird but, there's no SteamBackup option yet. What I'm doing is 7ziping it and putting it on 2 (yes 2) DVD's and shipping it to Mega with his AGP GFX card, all time permitting today cos i gotta go to fetch tristan shortly mid-term break today = Dad must fetch.
Will get to the Post office after I collect Tristan, so speak to Mr Mega once his shipment arriverates.
You'll just have to 7zip extract to steamapps\common (result = nice borderlands pre-load in your steamapps folder)

ANy chance of someone being able to get the install file to me in Bloem??? Downloaded 50% of it yesterday and then my PC started freaking out. Can't figure out how to continue the pre install since I had to reinstall Steam.
Already had to re-download DOD too.
Pretty please
