KeyboardInterrupt results in truncated netcdf files

Retrieving a file, hitting CTRL-C (exception KeyboardInterrupt) during the downloading phase results in a truncated file. This can be problematic as netcdf routines will happily read and return arrays from a truncated file. If the user forces an exit, perhaps the partially downloaded file should be deleted?
