I suspect that the Utility is doing its FTP using Wininet functions. For
non-programmers that means it's essentially getting Internet Explorer to do
the work invisibly in the background. It's a good method, as it usually
avoids firewall problems - as long as the user's browser is allowed access
to the web, the utility should be able to access it too - but it does mean
that it is affected by browser settings. If someone happens to have a huge
browser cache and the files are still there from last time then IE will
"helpfully" show you those instead of looking for new ones.
