I am sure that there is no error in the script.
I am using curl for last 14 months and even I came across such thing for the
first time.
Following is the code :-

links - This file has the links and filenames

while read link fname ; do
        curl -m 21000 -L -s -A "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0;
.NET CLR 1.0.3705)" -b cookie "$link" > $fname
        mv ./$fname ./UPLOAD/$fname
        sleep 10
done < links

There's probably an error in your script. It's hard to guess what it
could be without seeing it though.
