            Bug ID: 324124
           Summary: Kget will not correctly download from many sites
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kget
           Version: 2.10.5
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: konqextension
          Assignee: kget at kde.org
          Reporter: d_baron at 012.net.il

When trying to download from such sites, download name will default to
"downloader" or "download.html" or "download.php" or something of that ilk. The
file may or may not be the target file, most often a small file corresponding
to these names. Some larger? downloads may stall and not restart.

Site administrator tracked this to incopatability with apache/nginx X-file
extension which delivers data directly to the socket. The CLI utility wget is
apparently OK with this, kget is not.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to affected site
2. Choose download
3. Procede.
Actual Results:  
Described above.

Expected Results:  
Download of correctly named file in background.
