Here's an exercise for you:
In your browser, start downloading a test file, like [1]. Turn off your network card for a few seconds, then turn it back on. See what your browser does.
Next, start downloading a large file over Bittorrent, like [2]. Turn off your network card for a few seconds, then turn it back on. See what the client does.
