This new release of wget adds support for large files >2Gb

Please test if the following works (make sure that your web/ftp 
server supports large files):

- downloads of files smaller / larger than 2Gb
  via http and ftp
- continue aborted downloads smaller / larger 2Gb
  via http and ftp

Add your feedback to http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=123524

If I hear of no larger problems until Fri Sep 03, this package will be
pushed as an update of Fedora Core 2.

  Thanks
      Karsten
