File size counter turns into negative in case of bigger files than 2147483647 bytes.

I suppose you are using a signed 32 bit integer to display the size counter,
which is obviously too small for big files (like DVD ISO's).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download a file bigger than 2G
2. Watch the file size counter after reaching 2G
3. It will turn into negative

Actual Results:  
It's not a serious problem. It does not affect the downloading of the file.
