I have found this differs between the JRE on the platform. In my
experience, BufferedInputStream in IE 5.5 (no plugin) would get corrupted
so I had to read the full value returned by
URLConnection.getContentLength(). With Netscape 4.7, no plugin, I read
chunks as determined by BufferedInputStream.available().
I think the Netscape approach is how it should work.
