Unfortunately, > http has a lot of shortcomings when used for file transfer. Mike-- What kind of shortcomings have you encountered using http for file transfer? I rather like it, since it allows my browser to give me better information about the progress of the transfer (the file size is transmitted at the start so the client knows how much is coming). Performance seems reasonable, although i haven't done any stopwatch comparisons. I thought http was generally engineered to be *more* efficient than ftp for basic bit-pumping operations.
