Ah, a Win9x "quirk". I'll have to play with that when I get back to my Win9x box.

So I suggest you add an extra synchronization step. The most reliable I've come up with is something like: 

sub fail {    # Allow failures to show on the web page.
   print @_;
   exit 0;
}
$finish = 'transfer';
foreach $wmlfile (@fileftp) {
    if(-e "$finish/$wmlfile") {
        unlink "$finish/$wmlfile"
          or  die "Can't delete $finish/$wmlfile: $!\n";
    }
    if(-f $wmlfile) {
        $ftp_commands =
        "  open $remotehost1
               user $remoteuser $remotepass
               cd $remotepath
           asc
           put $wmlfile
           lcd $finish
           get $wmlfile
           bye\n";
        open (CMD, "|$cmd")
          or  fail "Can't fork() to run $cmd ($wmlfile): $!\n";
        print CMD $ftp_commands
          or  fail "Can't write commands to $cmd ($wmlfile): $!\n";
        close (CMD)
          or  fail "$cmd ($wmlfile) failed? ($?): $!\n";
        for(  0..100  ) {
            last   if  -f "$finish/$wmlfile";
            sleep 5;
        }
        die "$finish/$wmfile not found!\n"
          unless  -f "$finish/$wmlfile";
        print "File $wmlfile has been transferred \n";
        print "<br>\n";
    }
}
