Default REST & RETR Error
I've tried your FTP client, but found out some error, caused problably by combination of FTP client and FTP server.
When transfer drops for some reason, then resume of 15 MB file works in this way:

REST 9522120
RETR myarchive.003

next file is transferred in this way:

RETR myarchive.004

but due combination of client and server, transfer of myarchive.004 starts as it was REST, ie. the final file size is not 15.000.000 B, but 5477880 B (15.000.000 - 9.522.120)
and all the next files are that wrong size ...
the solution on FTP client side is to call FTP command which resets the REST position ...
but in your client there is no option to set command executed before REST or RETR command
some FTP clients for example CuteFTP can handle mentioned problem ...

btw. the problem is probably FlashFXP version independent, I've tried version 2.1 (924) either

we need to see more complete status log, also need to know what FTPD you are connecting to.

This is really strange, based on the ftp session log I don't see anything out of the ordinary. I will look into this.

I question the accuracy of the ftp server and wonder if it's corrupted or a buggy release.

On a side note please upgrade to v3.0 RC4

so it seems to be missing REST 0 in FlashFXP file retrieval commands

I doubt a rest 0 is required by the ftp protocol.
I think a rest is supposed to only apply to the next retr.

Send REST 0 before transfering new file should be an option in Site definition.

As I checked, RFC (959, 114, ...) is unclear about REST 0.

RFC 959 explains the procedure to restart a failed transfer, and it clearly states that you need to send a REST command just before you send a APPE/STOR/RETR command. The state diagram in section 6 shows that.
A REST command thus only apply to the next APPE/STOR/RETR sent.
If your server doesn't do that, it's probably a bug in their implementation.
