## Hello all:
## I'm sending you this
## BUG report: wget.
## WGET kills internet connection when invoked from WINDOWS
##
## This problem does not appear when invoked from Linux or BeOS (I have
tested it).
##
## I have probed many versions. I started with that one included with JIGDO
for windows, but same problem
## appears with many others, including last one on unxutils.sourceforge.net
## I will post this one to unxutils, also. They should have a more-windowish
approach to the bug.
##
## Lines with ## are comments
## Lines without ## are shell (COMMAND.COM) typed input and program output
