    Yes i would say that use a download manager. Can you please let me know what's your connections speed and what country are you downloading it from?

    Also what version are you trying to download?

    There are some application in vista that cannot support the vlc even if you re just downloading it. Try to use a download manager or a torrent to download it, maybe it will help.

    Provide and report regarding this matter.
    Thank you and have a great day.

    If you don't use download manager, maybe you will keep on encountering errors like this.
