Hi, I've just noticed a weird behavior of wget 1.8.2 while downloading a partial file with command: wget http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobatreader/unix/5.x/ linux-508.tar.gz -c The connection was very unstable, so it had to reconnect many times. What i noticed is not a big thing, just incorrect information, because (as You can see above) the file wasn't really fully retrieved.
