This means that downloaded files will get the download date, not the
last modified date sent from the download server.
I have only tested this on w32 and would be glad if someone else
tested on other platforms. (You can use EmacsWiki to test. Downloading
a file from there sends the Last-Modified header.)
In GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600)
of 2009-12-04
Windowing system distributor `Microsoft Corp.', version 5.1.2600

Yes, I think that's a feature. It's what Firefox does, too.

Thanks Lars, I see.
However this is very inconvenient if you need the last modified date. How
about making this an option when downloading files?
I did make a work around doing that. Though I did not make it an option.
