Robust FTP and Download Manager

Robust FTP is a Windows-based file transfer client application that transfers files between a user’s local PC and another, remote computer system connected via a modem and telephone lines or by a local-area network (With upload transfer resume and download transfer resume).

With Robust FTP, users can connect to any remote system that has a valid Internet address and an FTP server program, browse through directories and files, and transfer files or complete directories (including sub-directories) between the two systems. In addition, users can create, change, and remove directories and view, execute, rename, or delete files.

Robust Download Manager plugs into your web browser (any version of Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or higher) and extends your file-downloading power by resuming broken downloads and offering easy error recovery for both ftp and http links.

With Robust Download Manager you can segment the large files into smaller segments to accelerate the downloading process. If a download stops for any reason, you can easily resume it, Reconnect if there is any link error and more options that make downloading files more easier and flexible
