I keep seeing INFO messages saying that some .jpg has been downloaded, but
there's never any such file present in the output directory after the
download is complete. For example - see INFO (at the end of these lines):

The second-last line strongly suggests a JPG has been created, but there's
no such file when I look later. I have noticed on one occasion when H:\Gip
was open in an explorer window while a fetch was being processed that a JPG
file did appear, very briefly, but something clearly deleted it. Do you
have any idea what could be doing that and how I'd override it to keep JPGs?
I have not set the thumb or noartwork preferences.
