How about when you try it like this?

fetch -a -R -r -w 75 -T 90 \
 ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.5-RC1-cdboot.iso


OT:  I made a small, dumb tcsh script for this sort of thing.  You stick
URLs in $HOME/.leech.urls, make a directory (or symlink) called
$HOME/leeched , run the script, and forget about it.  It records what
it's downloaded so far in $HOME/.leeched.urls.  Just looking at it now,
I see a bunch of potential improvements, but hey, it works...

#!/bin/tcsh -f
foreach sucker ( `cat $HOME/.leech.urls` )
	echo $$ > $HOME/leech.pid
	set sucked = 0
	while ($sucked != 1)
		set sucked = 0
		cd $HOME/leeched && fetch -a -R -r -w 75 -T 90 "$sucker" \
		 && set sucked = 1 \
		 && echo "$sucker leeched.">>$HOME/.leeched.urls
        end
end
