Connection retries

Max retries  
Specify how many times Crystal FTP Pro should try to connect to the active FTP site. Crystal FTP Pro will retry connecting to a site if it has been disconnected from the site or the prior attempt to connect failed.  
 
Retry delay  
Set number of seconds between the connection retries.  
 
Anonymous session password
 
Anonymous password  
When connection to an FTP site anonymously, the FTP server normally asks for a password. This password should normally be your email address. You can set this setting to a "fake" email address, such as "anonymous@anonymous.com" to preserve your anonymity.  
 
Options
 
List hidden files and folders on FTP server  
When using this setting, Crystal FTP Pro will try to list all files in the given FTP folder. Including files that are normally hidden.  
 
Use FTP file date on downloaded files  
Normally Crystal FTP Pro sets the date of downloaded files to the date they get downloaded. But when using this setting, the downloaded files will preserve the date they originally had on the FTP site.  
 
Auto refresh local and FTP folders when needed  
Use this setting to make sure you can always see the most up-to-date list of files locally and on the FTP server. Disabling the setting will speed up the FTP navigation but may cause outdated directory information to be displayed.
