in reply to File::Temp acting strange under Windows XP

The size of the file in the directory entry is not always updated after each write to the file, even if the bytes written get flushed to disk. I download GB files and sometimes I see partial size updates but often the file size shows as 0 until the very end (presumably due to the file handle having been closed).
