Description ba0645 2005-07-01 17:47:34 UTC 
Version:           v0.8.4 (using KDE 3.4.1 Level "a" , SUSE 9.3 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.11.4-21.7-default

I try to download KNOPPIX4 from freenet with kget.
Link is: "ftp://ftp.freenet.de/pub/filepilot/linux/system/knoppix/KNOPPIX_V4.0-2005-06-08-LINUXTAG2005-DVD-DE.ISO"

The download starts showing me a size of 23,7 MB. The file to download is about 4GB. In the download window it goes beyond the 32,7 MB. In the menu bar it shows 99% of 23,7 MB within the whole download session.

It seems that download is startet and working til 4 GB are loaded.

I think this is a problem with the freenet.de ftp server. wget also doesn't show the correct filesize.

This is not a KGet issue.

btw, with Debian-DVDs it's the same^^
