Hmm, not sure - can't recall ever seeing one myself, as it goes. Maybe this could be caused by a 'Connection: Keep-alive' HTTP from the client, which then isn't kept open for successive requests? Or more likely, when the server is 'chunking' data to the client, and it dies halfway through? Not sure. > No, 206 doesn't mean that.

Just out of interest, though, how could a client ask for 'part' of a WMV file? All it can ask for, is the complete URL, surely? Or is there some kind of 'resume' operation available in HTTP as there is in FTP? That's kinda why I read between the lines, and put it down to the client closing the data-stream before it was finished, hence the server recorded it had sent what it had been asked for, up to that point. Actually, I'm more confused now than I was to begin with - LOL.
