The following exception occurred while trying to read an HTML page with URL =
http://www.amazon.com:80/exec/obidos/tg/browse/-/11268/

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to repeat it, but hopefully someone can look at the
readChunkSize() code to add a check for a null pointer and handle the
condition, so the problem doesn't occurr again.

java.lang.NullPointerException
