If you click on the DVD Iso file to download, the download manager shows the
progress bar of downloading a 63.5MB file all the time, and will only download
63MB and say download was successful. This will happen at any mirror with Firefox. 
Downloading with a regular ftp client at the same exact location. This will
happen with either ftp://, or http://. If you use a regular ftp client like say
smart ftp, you see the full size, and it downloads the entire 4 gig DVD. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to:
http://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/test/2.90/x86_64/iso/ or
ftp://mirror.linux.duke.edu/pub/fedora/linux/core/test/2.90/x86_64/iso/
2. Click on FC3-test1-x86_64-DVD.iso
3. Click Save to Disk, and watch the download manager. (Press CTRL -Y).

Actual Results:  
The download manager reports downloading x of 63.5MB, and once it's done
downloading 63.5 MB, it says successful and stops. 

Expected Results:  
Downloaded a 4 Gig file, so it should have done:
1. Indicated it's downloading a 4 gig file
2. Actually downloaded a 4 gig file.

Yep, same as bug 251649.  Both are big enough files that it's effectively
"rolling over" twice, postive to negative to positive.  Anything over the limit
is either negative or truncated.  So it's the same fundamental issue as bug 228968.
