Thanks for the reply - when I add the following code after the
.preform():

CURLFTP.SetOpt(CURLoption.CURLOPT_QUOTE, vbNull)

I processes the first file and then starts to download the second and
enters what appears to be a loop:

(I let it go for a good 5 minutes - twice)

RETR pb002231.png
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for pb002231.png (93644 bytes)
Getting file with size: 93644
Progress: 93644 0 0 0
Progress: 93644 0 0 0
Progress: 93644 0 0 0
Progress: 93644 0 0 0
Progress: 93644 0 0 0

It never finished downloads anything after the first QUOTE commands are
sent.
