I noticed the same thing. I think It is due to a patch (2004-11-18  
Leonid Petrov <nouser@lpetrov.net> * retr.c: Fix a timeout problem in 
fd_read_body when using http_proxy.) about bad reported content-length 
by some proxy. ie not that your proxy report a bad length, but wget 
think it could be. wget will just wait for a timeout (60 second ? ) and 
then continue. I notice this while downloading zero/near zero bytes long 
files.. taking days to end up! :P

So Leonid, if you are reading this, please check your work up, maybe add 
a switch to the command line to eneable/disable this behavior..

regards..
