Q. How to use FlashGet's management features? How to set default download folder?
A. FlashGet can categorize downloaded files and place them in specified folders, each category has its own directory. For example the category "MP3"'s default hard drive directory is c:\download\mp3. When putting a file into "MP3", the actual file will be placed in c:\download\mp3, all downloaded job can be moved to any Category, at the same time the actual file will be moved to the related folder as well. "Downloaded" is the default category, change its hard drive direstory changes the default download directory as well. We do not recommend you to change any default download directory

Q.I download from FTP-server with broken downloads resume-support via proxy-server, but "FlashGet" always starts download from the beginning. Why?
A.The proxy-server might not be supporting resume (like Microsoft Proxy Server). If this is a case, you may try to use direct connection or Winsock-client.

Q.What is the "PASV" mode (passive mode)?
A.Usually, when retrieving files over FTP, two connections are used: for commands and for data. Command-connection is set by client, data-connection is set by server. In some cases (when using firewall for instance) both connections have to be set by client. In such a cases server goes to passive mode when "PASV" command is sent from client.

Q.I can't retrieve file from FTP-server, what should I do?
A.If you are connected to Internet thru a firewall/proxy-server, please enable "PASV mode" in the FTP settings for your download(s).
