How much time does it take to copy 9GB file on Longhorn?

Recently I tried to copy a 9GB file. See below on the time it shows the task would complete - 24606 Days and 2 hours, which means I need to wait for 67.5 years.

Oh BTW this is in Longhorn RC0. But in all fairness after a few seconds it changed to 34 minutes. Phew! at least I don't have to wait a Long(horn) time.

Or a bad sector. A bad sector on HDD or DVD will screw up the time estimates.
