Subject: A note about using site ftp://38.168.214.175/pub/

1.  You don't have to give fake names on subsequent sessions.  Everybody can
have 25 simultaneous connects.  I can see who you are anyway.  I allow 500
clients at a time altogether and have never exceeded 300.  There is plenty of
room for all.

2.  You probably don't need a zillion connections anyway.  Use mget instead of
get and you can get a boatload of files on a single connection unattended.

3.  Don't forget to use binary mode when transferring binary files.

I would appreciate if you don't use bad language in your connection strings.
Just a personal preference.

Interesting site stat:
48,934 files downloaded so far totalling 3,671,842,009,000 bytes. (Not sure the
actual time period here...)
