All the suggestions so far are good. PCOMM allows selecting multiple files at once. FTP with the mget command also is good. If you want a more GUI interface instead of issuing FTP commands from the command line you can get things like FileZilla or FTP Commander that make it easier to use

In addition to the excellent suggestions that you have received so far, ( I like and use FileZilla myself), you can also use Winders built in FTP client to download CMS files to your PC. You can use the client interactively, (via a CMD window), or in batch mode. I have used batch mode to

I have a similar script that runs daily. I found that I had to add the -n switch to keep from being prompted for the password. This might be due to differences in the FTP client code. My command looks like this: ftp -n -s:getvm.txt vmsys where vmsys is the IP address or name of the VM system.
