Hello Everyone,

Please do not reject this email I registered 2 times successful.

I am in bit of a panic. 

We were using Indy 9 in Delphi 7 to extract files from an FTP server. The 
extraction was working fine but it was blocking our application. 

We have an application that collects fault files from devices that monitor 
power lines. When the Indy FTP Client gets a file it freezes our app which 
causes other devices to time out that are communicating using TCP/IP 
connections.

So we decided to use your component since it is a non-blocking component. We 
tested using the FTPTst demo. Everything looked great. We added a Ttimer to 
display the time every second. We uploaded a file from an FTP Server we have 
access to over the web. The file size is over 15M. The time being displayed by 
the Ttimer did not miss a second. We were so happy so we added the component to 
our application. 

Most of the files on the server are ZIP files. After we receive the files we 
are required to unzip and rename the files. It turns out every file downloaded 
is corrupt. PANIC!!

We went back to the FTPTst application and it is doing the same thing the 
extracted file is always greater in size then the original. We tried 
everything, turn passive mode off, turn binary mode off and nothing worked.

Your component seems to be adding data to the file, are you padding the files?

We also tested with stand alone applications and they extract the files just 
fine.

Please at your convenience please let me know your thoughts.
