One trick is always trying to access your irev page with a timestamp such as:

if you change the bogus value for every access, you never reach a cached page.

Hi There Dave,
I think the OP could use HTTP to get the files if he controls both
sides of the conversation.
If he controls only the receiving side and wants to grab a file from
FTP server that is behind a proxy then he can use shell() with curl on
linux and macs and maybe some vbscript magic on

This is similar to what I was putting forward. I've thought more about it
more and have a sample scenario:
The user sees "Mainstack" with all the buttons and a progress bar, etc.
There is also a "Workhorse" stack that has all the heavy-duty processing
scripts, opened like so from the Mainstack:
