To all the folks replying suggesting FileZilla/WinSCP/etc... not that I don't agree that just about anything is better than MSIE... but I've seen MSIE give a progress bar when downloading from an FTP site before. Is it possible that the way some FTP servers provide file size information is incompatible with MSIE, or something along those lines? I know, for example, that FTP through our Squid proxy server results in an "Time remaining: Unknown" from MSIE. Firefox gets the size properly. So MSIE doesn't like something Squid does. I've never cared enough to find out what, but could this be the same thing? Maybe a different FTP *server* would help the OP. Especially since getting all the lusers in the world to switch to a better FTP client seems unlikely. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
