Google Drive - Virus scan warning blocks downloads

[marklar423]

When downloading large(1) single files from Google Drive, sometimes Google Drive will return an HTML page asking to skip a virus scan, instead of the file bytes. I've attached a sample of the HTML.

From my initial research of others with this problem, there doesn't seem to be an easy way around this just by using curl. One option could be to check the MIME type of the response, and if its HTML try to parse out the "continue" link. However, this is hacky and will likely break whenever Google changes that page.

Another option is rclone instead of curl, as added by #35 . Since rclone uses the Google API (and not raw HTTP) it doesn't have this issue and would work without any hacking / parsing HTML.

(1): The limit for "large" appears to be between 50 and 100 MB, as my ~50 MB files downloaded fine, but the 109 MB file I have downloaded the warning HTML instead.
