I imagined..that's why I said that even if it was "server's fault" ....

No, the file was not updated by me, but from a financial data provider.
Just try:

ZnClient new get: '
http://static.quandl.com/end_of_day_us_stocks/ticker_list.csv'

Yes, I think you should. For example, Curl did work for that very same

Yes, that's exactly my workaround:

ZnEntityReader >> contentType
^ ((self headers includesKey: 'Content-Type') *and: [ (self headers at:

ifTrue: [ self headers contentType ]
ifFalse: [ ZnMimeType applicationOctetStream ]

Probably you can make that prettier :)
