Hi All, I am trying to do this with wget:
wget --connect-timeout=20 --read-timeout=1 --quiet \ http://support.kaspersky.com/viruses/utility/ -O - Problem: the site takes FOREVER to complete its download. Dribble, dribble, dribble. Occasionally is just stops. And wget hangs. I fired this web page up in Firefox ten minutes ago and it is still loading! Is there a way to get wget to just time out after a while? "--connect-timeout" doesn't seem to work as it makes a connection. Or maybe, even better, limit the read to the first 200 bytes, which is all I need. (Not finding an option in "man wget" or "man curl".) Many thanks, -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners.
