Works for me.

Jython 2.5.1 (Release_2_5_1:6813, Sep 26 2009, 13:47:54)

Results in a local file named "chrome.zip", 23,999,591 bytes long.

What does the following print on your system?

import urllib
url = "http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/chromium-rel-xp/50594/chrome-win32.zip"
print urllib.splittype(url)

On mine, it prints

('http', '//build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/chromium-rel-xp/50594/chrome-win32.zip')
