[Lula] Bizarre. Firefox can't read a file, but wget can?

I got the same FF error.  The wget failed for https mode.
Without the s in https, it worked.  So, I tried telnet to
see the HTTP response headers (FF Web Developer would not
show them, as it truly seems to have not gotten the file)
and it worked.  I wanted to see what it was about the HTTP
headers that FF was balking at.  I include them below.
No doubt one of these headers is causing it.  IP # changed to ***
I've seen all these HTTP commands but one.  What's an ETag?
And the Content-Length might be off.  I count 182 bytes.
Anyone have an earlier FF installed to see if it works?
