unusual error

I have been downloading a 4.8GB file - everything was going fine until i logged on today and attempted to resume the file download - Smart FTP starts ok and the resume requester comes up and i answer yes to resume the download - the following line comes up:
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for xxxxxx file (my x's)
4586184860 bytes
There is not enough space on the disk
ABOR
I have 2 60GB hard drives on my system and both report more than enough free space
can anyone help with this problem :cry:

Hi,

Are you sure your FTP server supports big files (like 4.8 GB?). Some servers (like Serv-U) seem to be limited. Then, it is not so good to transfer 4.8 GB as one file: one error during upload/download and you can try again... Use a split software or a compression software supporting multi-volume.

Regards,
