Thanks! After a couple of hours of looking, I found a fix and its working so far (dunno if it will courrpt the file or not).

Here it is if anyone else runs into this problem:

This tip will help you to resume a download (especially large size) in the following cases.
  • Accidentally removed transfer from the transfers tab.
  • Closed Opera with an intention to resume download next day but transfer is missing when Opera is started.
  • Resuming download with an another high speed mirror.
The following will work when server allows resuming of broken downloads.
  1. Start download again and save with another name.
  2. Stop transfer after few seconds.
  3. Delete new download file.
  4. Rename old download file with new name.
  5. Resume transfer.
