Yes, I'm with Anatoly.  Some browsers accept encrypted or compressed
content and then try to display it. I've tried lynx (GPL2),wget (GPL3) but
curl (MIT) with minimum options does the trick nicely.
I use curl in place of fetch, so in a make.conf there's
FETCH_CMD= /usr/local/bin/curl --create-dirs --connect-timeout 10 -m 240
--retry 1 -C - --ipv4 -O -o -

curl is harder to master than wget ;)

Hopefully this helps :)
