In the last week or so I've noticed a new behavior on the part of
1.70r3 ... I have cfg set up for "safe" parallel downloads of images.
I get a rather weird message on some pages [the page in the URL was
visited for the first time today, yet I got it there] and a "soft
lock" on page download. The "soft lock" can be broken by simply
"terminating download"; with the page at the URL, and all others I can
remember off hand, the page is then rendered correctly and no images
are missing. So it would see that the problem is not *actually* with
downloading an image.
The message: Waiting for parallel image download to finish -30473 of
-30473
That's right, those are minus signs.

Anyone wants to try it and see what happens, be my guest. <G>

I remember once recently waiting for Arachne to finish a negative-sized
download:

L.D., read through that quoted-printable-encoded Web page, and check those long
lines, especially around column 128. They're not coming through right, one
character is being dropped.

Some of those quoted-printable lines go beyond 128 characters. I hope you can
read my comments past the end of these lines. It might perhaps not make any
difference decoding and viewing the Web page in Arachne, since Arachne doesn't
(yet) do Javascript.
