there is sometimes very funny behavior with full cache. I noticed that
A. will stop d/ling images with some pages. Other pages cause infinite
loops. All this stuff will disappear when cache is cleared. It would be
interesting how many files have to be really in cache since the counter
stops at 256.

BTW, the following feature would be nice: When downloding a file from
the web, could this "What to do with this stuff?" requester appear
before d/ling any byte? Or, to have some kind of automatic, mime types
mentioned in mime.cfg will be saved to cache and processed. All other
files should go directly to download dir. This would save diskspace and
time.
