In that case, please use wget ;)
My ISP must be messing up something, but as I don't own the server and
can't do anything about file permissions or other configurations on it, I
kinda have to live with it.
FWIW, I usually use lynx for browsing and wget for downloading files (and
Mozilla, on accasion, if I actually want the graphics) and haven't had
this problem yet, but I *think* there might be some policy that disallows
access to files if there's no HTML that leads to it. There's no
requirement for the user to accept this policy that I know of, though (but
IANAL)
Anyway, thanks for letting me know :)
