Files not downloading the correct file using WebClient

Hello! I'm using this code to download a file and save it to a location.

http://pastebin.com/10vpANR9

When I bring it up with:

DownloadFile("TWRP", "https://dl.twrp.me/angler/twrp-2.8.7.2-angler.img", "./Downloads/TWRP.img")

It downloads a 6kb file when it is supposed to be ~16.5M. When accessing the link from a web browser (ie. Firefox) it prompts me to download.

Is there a way to work around this?

Thanks.

It depends on why you're getting that 6KB file. Have you tried to open it with a text editor? It might be a error response. Or It can be a partial download chunk of the original file. Depends on what you're getting would lead you to the solution.
