The KFtp that I'm proposing will have 2 file browsers in parallel (Local file system & remote file system) & thus giving the user a very easy to use interface (Allowing drag and drop between them also).Also while downloading/uploading any folder(With multiple files in it) , it'll create multiple connection & download/upload multiple files in parallel.This will reduce the download/upload time. KDac is a download accelerator that will download but in the accelerated rate i.e; it'll partition the remote file to be download in multiple part & start downloading all of it in parallel , which will be faster than the normal download. -Anand Kumar Developer at IIITA -:linkinAnand.blogspot.com
