I'm using wget version 1.10.2.
If a try to download a nonexistant file with a command like like this
wget http://www.somehost.com/nonexistant.html
and the file does not exist, wget reports a 404 error and no file is
created.
However, if I specify the file where to place the output, with a command
like this
wget http://www.somehost.com/nonexistant.html -O localfile.html
then file "localfile.html" will always be created, and will have length
of zero even if the remote file does not exist.

I doubt, therefore I might be.
