Hi,
Why? works for me.

./wget http://busybox.net/downloads/busybox-1.21.1.tar.bz2
Connecting to busybox.net (140.211.167.224:80)
busybox-1.21.1.tar.b 100% |******************************************************************|  2150k  0:00:00 ETA

BTW, this could be even improved to source a global wgetrc file.

Ciao,
Tito
