ICS has two functions UpdateFileAge and UpdateUFileAge in
OverbyteIcsFtpSrvT.pas to set the time stamp to local or UTC time
respectively.  

Of course you need the correct time stamp to start with, which depends
on the FTP server capabilities, some are better than others.  UTC is
safer since it does not change twice a year.

Download with a changed file exetension, and only rename it to the
original name once you are happy it's complete and not corrupted. 

The free high level TMagFtp component does all this stuff automatically,
