double download

Description
After being downloaded some files have twice the size of the original and indicated size such as 30.2MB instead of 15.1MB. These files work normally, if exe or zip or pdf files but they are excessively large. During progress report the % indicator arrives at 100% downloaded when the expected file size has been transferred but the transfer process just continues while the progress indicator remains at 100%.
The issue has been haunting me for a while but not from the beginning. At some update the issue first disappeared but then returned. I just updated to 3.2.8.1 but that didn't help.
OS: Win XPPro/SP3
Thanks for your help
This is a known bug in Microsoft FTP servers. They claim they support resume, yet when you ask them to resume they ignore the resume offset and keep sending data.
You need to contact the server administrator, tell him to upgrade to a proper server.
