Revit Installation failure

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm trying to install the student version of Revit 2016 on my laptop, but when it gets to the Installation stage, some of the files fail to transfer.

I did try turning my real time protection on my antivirus off, switched off the adblocker but got the same result. 

This is the link I'm downloading it from:

http://www.autodesk.com/education/free-software/revit

I've tried 'Install Now' and 'Download Now', also tried 'register once'  in case it was a issue with multiple accounts but none of those seem to be the solution.

I'm not very tech savvy, one of my IT friends suggested that I look for an FTP...link? I don't know what that is, I'm scared! lol

Any and all help would be appreciated, thank you in advance!
