Although I have not used Red Ryder 10.3 to download under MultiFinder, there
have been several comments in the FreeSoft Rountable on GEnie regarding this
subject.

From my understanding, any sort of download is supported in the MultiFinder
background.  Although Red Ryder 10.0 could do this after some ResEdit
tweaking, RR 10.3 seems to be quite happy with MultiFinder without any added
fixes.

Strangely enough, Red Ryder 10.3 performs X-modem CRC downloads faster in the
background under MultiFinder than when RR is running in the foreground (with
or without MultiFinder).  That doesn't seem quite right, but it has been
observed and reported by several RR users.  Thus the implementation of
MultiFinder functionality seems to have been done well, at least with respect
to file transfers.
