I recently found a way to download multiple images from my FTP folder. In Windows File Explorer, I mapped a folder to my AAVSO FTP folder (CCHD) at ftp://ftp.aavsonet.aavso.org/aavso/cchd/.
Open a Windows File Explorer, left click on This PC and then right click within the right pane. Select Add a New Network Location. Then follow the wizard instructions. Note you will need to cut and paste the FTP link address from a browser for use in the wizard. Also, use Log in Anonymously. Please let me know if there's anything more i can do to help.
The only thing I have not accomplished is how to remove files from my online FTP folder.
I tried this method and it worked perfectly. The download is easy, the access is easy and because it looks like a folder it's also user friendly. Thank you
Yes, I just discovered FileZilla (in a list along with numerous other FTP clients). If you're happy with File Zilla, then that's probably the one I'll use.
Of course, I'll have to update my OS to use it. Oh Well, this had to be done sooner or later.

Thanks Chuck. This is encouraging. I neglected to mention that I use a Mac and Firefox.

Phil et al:
Another alternative to download multiple images is a FTP Client like FileZilla.
