A-ha.......yes they are images so do I not need to download them or is there a way round this.

What control panel does your host use? Most hosts offer cPanel, and there is a built in backup function which will zip up your entire account and let you download it. FileZilla is good for file by file downloads.. but I would not suggest any FTP program for a full site download.

Also, make sure you aren't setting it to automatically resume downloads - some files cannot be resumed, which is why you may be encountering that "Critical Transfer Error". I usually get it on htaccess and text files if my internet connection gets flakey
