Hi,

I am using wget to download a 5m file. After about 3.5m the line dropped out. I left wget running
and connected again. After about five minutes it hadn'tstarted downloading again so I ctrl C'd it
and started wget again. It didn't pick up where it had stopped. Is ctrl C bad for wget? What should
I have done?

I always start wget with this command line:  wget -c http://.....

Should I start wget without the -c and only use it when I'm trying to restart a download?

Thanks
russ
