  15. Fellow Netizens,
  16.  
  17. Is there any way (using a Perl or C program) to verify that a 
  18. file has been downloaded successfully?  The file I'm working with is
  19. fairly big (~6MB), so there is a fairly significant chance that the 
  20. connection could be lost while downloading.
  21.  
  22. Any comments/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!
  23.  
  24. Thanks in advance,
  25.
