Downloading VS 2008

I downloaded VS 2008 today. It took about 3 minutes to download, then then just sat there for about 25 minutes installing. How could it take that much time, now that it was all on the local disk drive? Weird.

Furthering the weirdness, I am trying to remotely install the same thing on my dev machine from work, and every 10 seconds Norton pops up asking if the install can access the internet. So I can't set it running and forget about it, I have to sit here and monitor it.
