already checking the response code).
Please verify that it is still working for you...
Thanks for your contribution

> The HttpClientHander.download and BasicURLHandler.download methods don't
> bother to check the HTTP response code from the server. As a result they
> will put anything that the server sends back as the contents of the artifact.
> This isn't so good if it is something like the HTML message for a 404 or 503
> and what you wanted was a JAR file. In fact it is pretty bad because then
> the cache is poisoned and the user is left with purging the cache as the only
> solution.
