 Replying to [comment:2 alexnv]:
 > When download actually stops (in browser: 0 bytes/sec, unknown time
 remaining), the Vidalia Bandwidth Usage graph shows that the traffic still
 goes on, with considerable pace (40 kb/sec).
 > As counter shows, more than 100mb were downloaded after the browser
 showed that it stopped.
 > All that data goes "somewhere", but is not attached to the file.

 Yep. The data is silently thrown out by polipo.
