[tuxman]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041108 Firefox/1.0

I just downloaded the file above, and - I think it's too large or something -
Firefox showed "-1%" during the download and after it "1KB of 1KB downloaded",
but it's more than 600 MB large.
Firefox seems to calculate large file sizes in a wrong way.

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
Download the file above, didn't test it with other files (yet?).
Actual Results:  
See Details.

Expected Results:  
It should have shown ~ 600 MB and increased the % of downloading.

The link works for me with FF 1.0 on WinNT4. I see the download size correctly.
Depends on server. Otherwise it looks like Bug 149237. I don't find a FF
specific bug.
