I'd let the SIZE command be issued in any case, but instead I wouldn't 
rely on its value to indicate the presence of the file.

Let GET fail when that happens. If SIZE returns a size, we'll be able to 
show it in the download window and estimate time. If it doesn't, try 
and retrieve the file nonetheless.
