Two things:
1) give up on the 3.1_r0 images - they've been superseded by 3.1_r0a
after a bug was found.
2) downloading a DVD-sized image can be broken by bugs in HTTP large
file support at either end. Even if the tools at your end are
64-bit capable, the apache on ftp.ie.debian.org may not be. I'd
recommend trying jigdo/bittorrent instead if you can.
