Dear all,
as the bug # 7991 is flagged not-reproducible, let me give you some pieces
of code, as I have the same or similar problem. The problem always shows up
with the first example (a small text file) and only sometimes (but without
obvious pattern) with the second example, which is a binary file.
> download.file("ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/btk/bal012006.dat";,
"C:/temp/bal012006.dat", method = 'internal', mode = 'w', cacheOK = FALSE)
trying URL 'ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/btk/bal012006.dat'
ftp data connection made, file length 5110 bytes
opened URL
downloaded 0 bytes
Warning message:

download.file("ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/aid_public/aal012006.dat.gz";,
"C:/temp/aal012006.dat.gz", method = 'internal', mode = 'wb', cacheOK =
FALSE)
trying URL 'ftp://ftp.nhc.noaa.gov/pub/atcf/aid_public/aal012006.dat.gz'

Finally, is the spec of the system I'm working on:
> version
_
platform i386-pc-mingw32
arch i386
os mingw32
system i386, mingw32
status
major 2
minor 3.1
year 2006
month 06
day 01
svn rev 38247
language R
version.string Version 2.3.1 (2006-06-01)
> win.version()
[1] "Windows XP Professional (build 2600) Service Pack 2.0"
Many thanks in advance and best regards,
Jan
