Windows slaves freezing on downloadFile step

[Elliot Saba]

All I see is the following:

2015-10-06 00:02:26+0000 [Broker,28,www.xxx.yyy.zzz] Unhandled Error
        Traceback (most recent call last):
        Failure: twisted.spread.pb.PBConnectionLost: [Failure instance:
Traceback (failure with no frames): <class
'twisted.internet.error.ConnectionLost'>: Connection to the other side was
lost in a non-clean fashion.
        ]
