That's probably just an effect of the file-system used on the machine the server runs on (block-sizes and such). You could check the byte-size instead of the kb size, or simply try to re-download the file you just transferred, and do a bit-comparison, in windows this is done with the program called fc.exe.

I cant download the file again because the server says,crc failed on 200,and locked or something

Could you be a bit more specific? Does the target site have a zipscript, ie. a script that is run on all received files? Does this script work? Does FTP transfers (direct from you) work? Do you have any entries in the status-log? If you do, include it, preferably time-stamped.

if I download directly from the ftp the files also are bigger then the original

Still no logs? Have you tried with a different client? Such as the ftp.exe that comes with windows? If that's still leaving bigger files, it's not flashfxp, but most likely the target-site that has problems.

By that you mean download to your machine? That's probably the file-system difference, as mentioned earlier. As long as the file is okay, it's not much to worry about.

Things you should know..

1. If you are using a crack file transfers will be corrupted.

2. If you did not download FlashFXP from our website or tucows then the chances of it being official is slim.

3. If in doubt download it from http:///www.flashfxp.com/download.asp or grab the latest beta from our public beta forum.

4. If you transfer the file in ASCII mode the size will change. Most files must be transferred in BINARY mode. By default AUTO mode is used and ASCII files are determined via the ASCII file extension list.

5. If the files are still corrupted then please provide us with a copy of the status window text, this can be achieved by right clicking on the status window and selecting copy to clipboard.

Oh, why did you have to go and say that, bigstar. Spoilsport.

(But I see where you're coming from regarding those support-requests)
