when you click a link to DL a file, in the status bar of the DL, the file size is not shown nor is the "time remaining"

any idea why that may be? using 1.01 with vB RC3 - upgrading to 3 gold this weekend..

I personally don't mind, but my members get a little pissy about it..

No, this hasn't been asked before and it was a "design feature"...

I think it's quite easy to add this facility - and it probably should be included, as some of my users become a bit mouse button happy, not knowing if their downloads are happening or not. But there's one situation (when the d/l comes from another site) where I don't think it's possible - you have to have read the entire file before you know its size, whereas for local files, the operating system tells you.
