For those who are getting isos and other large images, please use ncftp or
something else that can properly resume a session, e.g. only goes and gets
what's not already there.
Just installed wget ( apt-get kicks :) and it's man page says it does this
too. See "-c --continue-ftp" in the wget man page.
