As the log says, your data is truncated because the client (your browser)
closed the TCP connection with DeleGate before it complete receiving the
response data.  So the problem seems why your browser did it.
You can see the whole HTTP response from your DeleGate with a command
like this:

  % delegated -Fdget http://your-delegate/your-file.ppt -h -o > xxx

  % more xxx
  HTTP/1.0 200 OK
  Date: Sun, 25 May 2008 06:05:15 GMT
  Server: ETL-DeleGate/9.8.2-pre36 (as a FTP/HTTP gateway)
  DeleGate-Ver: 9.8.2-pre36 (delay=1)
  MIME-Version: 1.0
  Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-powerpoint
  Content-Length: 3249152

  ...binary data of PPT...

A possible problem is that your browser does not accept "application/vnd.ms-powerpoint".
If it is the case, you can change it to "application/octet-stream" like this:

  FILETYPE=".ppt:I:PPT:binary:application/octet-stream"

Cheers,
Yutaka
