Downloading of unknown...WTF?!

10-02-2006, 11:49 AM

I were downloading a game and it says: 192mb of unknown... How does it don't know the size and it's downloading it? I saw in the website the game has 450mb. Will it stop when it reaches 450mb or what?

Welcome to the internet. Yes, it will stop once it is complete. That's is some "streaming download".

haha, Unknown probably means it doesnt recognize the file extensior, like 7z ,which is a newcomer to the archiving world.

Nope. Unknown probably means that the web server does not tell the browser the size of the transfered file. 7z is hardly a newcomer.
