silent except for the download

Hi,

My installer needs to run in silent mode - so far so good.
But if it needs to download some extra files (either using nsisdl::download or InetLoad::load) I would like to show the user that something is happening... like turning silent mode off just for that section.
Sorry if this question is obvious, I have RTFM and I can't figure it out.

I've tried:
SetSilent normal
(Do download stuff)
SetSilent silent
Which had no effect.

I've tried SetSectionFlags (although I'm not sure I understand the concept and may have done it wrong)

Any help much appreciated - especially with code snippets.

Antoine
