Yes, busy status doesn't work (AS 1.9). In case of a download you may it
workaround by comparing the file size every minute (or whatever the download
timeout is).
Yeah, this is probably what I'll end up doing. I tried the handler
offered by Brian Geiger (thanks!) but it didn't produce the correct
result on a file that was being downloaded by Internet Explorer. What
a pain in the hiney.
Thanks to all who offered input and scripts. :-)
