    I've used a program called FlashGet that does something like that, but I think it might contain spyware.

    If it does it should be listed in the normal places (SpyBot website & similar I think), if it isn't then give it a whirl - you can get it from loads of download sites.

    I'm afraid you didn't get me . I'm looking for FTP browser that traverse folders and download files . I know both programs you suggested but I don't think they can do the job , do they ?

    I'm really new to FTP servers . I found an FTP server that offers downloading a lot of stuff for free . The thing it cuts off every 5 minutes (maybe because of traffic ?) . I have to browse the folders to get the files I need . The program I'm using right now works good but when it gets disconnected , it doesn't autoconnect so I have to reconnect manually . What if I'm sleeping.. !

    FlashGet has an FTP browser, and can resume FTP downloads.

    I didn't use it much myself (and it was a while ago!), so I'm not sure if does exactly what you want, but it's worth a try
