Well did you set ftp for binary mode?
Just type 'binary' at the prompt and transfers will then be done in binary.
If you leave ftp in text mode the text is subject to conversions e.g. cr becomeslf and such like (that would be PC -> Unix).
Hash is also quite useful for watching progress.
If you did all this I see no reason why your program shouldn't work unless
it's corrupted in its original form!
