The install of F9 went so smooth that I wanted my friend to try it out. 
I gave my DVD to him (yes I should have saved a copy but too late now). 
Anyway I want to install on a laptop my company gave me and I need 
another DVD. I guess I could get the original back but this download 
problem has me wondering what's going on. In fact I'm even having 
problems with wget. I'm baffled. I started wget this morning and 
expected it to be done upon my return from work. Well I'm back now and 
this is what I see:

     wget -c

 Looks like I have the same problem with wget as I have with Seamonkey 
download manager. The download gets stuck at the end and then starts 
over. I have no clue what's going on.
