DownloadFile will download one file only, so you have to specify the full path to one file. To determine what files and folders are available you can use an FtpWebRequest and set its Method property to WebRequestMethods.Ftp.ListDirectories.

I'm quite sure that you're just as capable of searching MSDN and Google for the relevant terms as I am. I've never done it myself but if I was the first thing I would be doing is going to the MSDN Library and looking up FtpWebRequest and WebRequestmethods.Ftp.ListDirectories, as should anyone.
