What's the URL you are downloading the backup from? Where is the backup located? Have you tried moving the file to a directory that you know can be publicly accessed via HTTP? That's the first thing I would try.

# smart ftp, it doesnt appear
# command prompt ftp, i get a 'The File Is To Large'

I wouldn't be surprised if 2.5GB is too large for many FTP clients. Try a secure FTP client such as WinSCP.

I imagine that IVP version 1.3 may be the latest free version. The current version requires a licence and possibly this couldn't be easily arranged through Cpanel.
