It looks like the newest setup.exe opens a new FTP session for each
package it wants do download and never closes them.  I noticed this
because sunsite.auc.dk mirror complains

530 Sorry, max. four sessions pr. client..

netstat shows 4 TCP sessions to sunsite.dk:ftp in ESTABLISHED state and
one in TIME_WAIT.

Now it looks like waiting a bit after this error dialog makes one of
those sessions to end (netstat still shows CLOSE_WAIT).

I'm using Win2000 under VMware.
