It does.

It's failing before EOF.

This might still be something to do with it, but on the last test with 
CURL and a 8k buffer:

175kb file downloaded okay
66MB file hung after 44kb downloaded

It often works fine. So I'm considering using fsockopen and using 
'set_time_limit' on each iteration and catching the exception when it 
hangs to retry the file a number of times. This will be a first for me.

I appreciate your advice with this one. And the question I've been 
avoiding asking is now looming in my mind - any idea when 5.5.6 might be 
released? ;-)

Thanks again,


Mark...
