asyncHTTP vs IE file differences

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

I downloaded a file from the internet twice, once in IE, once in 
asyncHTTP.ew, and got different filesizes, even tho they display the same,, 
or at least look like the same to my two biological eyes. I saved both files to 
disk, and went to Textpad, and ran a file compare, and got this:

-------
Compare: (<)U:\asynctest.jpg (1305697 bytes)
   with: (>)C:\goods_hstacs_f1.jpg (1305709 bytes)

The files are identical
------

But they are plainly different sizes! 
I then saved to the same folder, with names asynctest1.jpg and 
asynctest2.jpg (to get the filename lengths the same), and the same 
compare results, same file lengths. It looks to me like asyncHTTP.ew lost 12 
bytes, but i don't know where, or if they are important, or IE added 12 bytes, 
or what? The file is at 
http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/image/0306/goods_hstacs_f1.jpg

Anyone got a clue they can loan me on this one?
