There is no "all-in-one file" to download, but when you
download the file "setup.exe", you can choose the option
to "download from internet" and then select many files
that you wish to download. This allows you to select
many files and download them all at once- this would
allow you to download many files and leave your computer
unattended, perhaps late at night when dial-up is less
expensive.
After you have downloaded from the internet, you can choose
the option to "install from local directory" and there is
no need to stay connected to the internet.
