      yes that is possible....but you would need a download app made to do it. it only needs to be small to do as HTTP has a from-to request of sorts. I'm working on a re-downloader app at the moment. I'm working on the file handling at the moment and i'll pass on any details of HTTP requests when i gat to researching them.    Wake up CPians.....    Follow the Green Alien.... :bob:"Bob, a real Alien in a virtual world" Get your free CP wallpaper here or [Paul]

        No. It is possible if writing a program to do it, but then it probably becomes not for the "common user". That person has in my experience yet to learn difficult and complex keyboard combinations like ALT-TAB, thinks CTRL-C is a keyboard shortcut for "copy", still acts like the keyboard would take a bite if using more than one finger at once and when left at a command prompt just displays that empty stare that usually indicates *stack overflow - dummy mode on*. :-)
