More or less: the server returns a 200 (instead of the expected 206,
for a "Range" request), but the connection ends after a short while.

E.g.: searching for the title "the" (quite a common string!) it
will fetch only the first 92 KB of the web page.
Not the expected (and requested!) 32 KB, but not too bad: it contains
the first 310 results, a lot less than the whole page (106999 results!)

I know I should investigate this strange behavior of the IMDb web
site, but I suggest _not_ to bet money on this. ;-)
