No, simply because that would be a HUGE security risk.

It would also drive out bandwidth use into overdrive and cause the site to close. I am afraid that FTP access is not allowed. Neither are download managers or multiple thread download programs of any kind. The server monitors the use of these and will ban any IP that is found using them so don't be tempted to try that as a fix.

i agree

if anyone can have accesses to ftp the bandwidth will be overused in an overkill,cool to hear the server monitor and ban leech programs.
