Is there any way to quickly tell which version is the correct one?
As far as I can tell I only get the one version (possibly because
I've never downloaded it before).

The version I get when downloading with Firefox is 17,232 bytes 
in length (same as on the server).

It could be that Firefox is using a cache, or perhaps your ISP
is caching files.  Did you try clearing the Firefox cache?
