35903 - FTP download goes haywire, bogus rate and file size

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 33808

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Miguel Covarrubias]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.2.12-20 i686; en-US; m14)
BuildID:    2000041311

During an FTP download of a nightly Mozilla build, the download starts to go
beserk.  The progress dialog reports the transfer rate increasing beyond belief
and the amount of data downloaded far exceeds the size of the file.  I've ended
up cancelling when the size of a 6MB download gets reported as 9MB with no sign
of stopping.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try to download a nightly build with Mozilla
2.
3.
