Hi! Michael Ortmann allready said 'bout bug when Wget shows wrong
percentage when completing downloads. Like:

--CUT HERE--
==> RETR 063.3mg Caltronix Megafont GS V1.3 Bank.sfpack ... done.
Length: 5,120,699 [-25,263,429 to go] (unauthoritative)

          [ skipping 29650K ]
29650K ,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,, ,,........ .......... ..........593% @   5.08
KB/s
--CUT HERE--

(negative length?! Huh, I guess problems in "ftp.c")
It only happens of some specific FTP servers. I suggest you to play with
ftp://www.thesoundsite.net:2021/Fonts/Soundfonts%20Compressed/Bass%20Electronic%20Super%20Nova%20(3,248KB).sfpack
THIS SERVER ALWAYS GETS THIS BUG!!!

Other thing I wish you to see is connection break treatment when using -t
option. Normally, when server refuses connection (I mean, when connection
is accept AND server answers "no"), Wget retries. But, if connetion gets
broken, like PPP line fall, Wget does not retries! I think it may retry
until reestabilish connection, don't you?
