Default "10-bytes-forever" redux

i'm running bearshare (currently 4.8.0b47, same problem with earlier bears). i don't know HOW many times i've reported this.

limewire apparently gets confused about file sizes. when downloading the last chunk of a file, it will do goofy things. currently seeing this with limewire 4.0.10 & 4.8.1, and 360share/4.2.6 (of course, i've seen this or some variation of it since lw 2.8.x).


example: file size = 5,968,335

while (power on)
{
limewire requests: 5,968,325 - 5,970,621 (2,297 bytes, 2,287 bytes past EOF)
bearshare responds with: 5,968,325 - 5,968,334 (10 bytes)
}

FIX THIS ALREADY! DAMMIT!
