I think they open a second thread with the FTP, they get the filesize and they poll that. (Like every second).

Most FTP's I have, have the possibility to log in twice. Maybe a feature in the options screen to enable this... If Size cannot be determined, because some FTP servers don't show files which are incomplete, then just close the 2nd thread.

This should be at least as accurate as just downloading a file.
