User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021130
When a file is downloaded using either the FTP or HTTP protocol, and
the download is interrupted (e.g. by a bad modem connection), all
data downloaded until that moment is discarded, and the download
starts again with byte 1.
If e.g. a download advanced 95% completion, and the connection is
then dropped, the download starts again from scratch.
Mozilla could make use of FTP's RESTART (REST) command (RFC 959),
and of HTTP servers supporting byte ranges (RFC 2068).
