I don't know since when this happens, but I've noticed,
that the ETA time looks strange:

While fetching this file:
lrwxr-xr-x  1 ftp  ftp         36 Jun 27 15:43 live-current.iso -> live-5.1-CURRENT-20030627-JPSNAP.iso
-rw-r--r--  1 ftp  ftp  238714880 Jun 27 15:42 live-5.1-CURRENT-20030627-JPSNAP.iso

ftp> get live-current.iso
local: live-current.iso remote: live-current.iso
227 Entering Passive Mode (211,14,6,234,230,179)
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for 'live-current.iso' (238714880 bytes).
  7% |**                                   | 17666 KB   64.94 KB/s 55:00:17 ETA

So getting a file of about 227MB with 64.94 KB/s takes 55 hours? 
And when the time goes by and one minute finishes, it's not getting
54:59:59 but instead the ETA shows 54:00:59.
