Just so everyone knows (I didn't at first) is that ADC's FTP servers support the resumption of downloads. I don't know how OmniWeb does it (or if it does it), but in IE, double clicking on an unfinished download causes it to resume.

Internet Explorer does this #$%^&* thing regularly, popping up new windows in front of you while you're typing, or selecting a popup menu from a window, or whenever it's least convenient for the user. I can't wait to get rid of it.

One other #$%^&* annoyance, for which there should be a system-wide override preference for turning it off, is click-through on controls. I just lost a 16-hour download of the 10.1 developer tools after clicking by mistake in the vicinity of Omniweb's "stop Download" button while it was hidden beneath other windows... there's not even a confirmation dialog for the thing.
