try this function

C#

public static void Download(string FTPFullFileName, string DestFullFileName, string UserName, string Password)
       {
           try
           {

               DestFullFileName = DestFullFileName.Replace("/", "\\");
               int indexPart = DestFullFileName.LastIndexOf("\\");

               if (indexPart != -1)
               {
                   String DestFolder = DestFullFileName.Substring(0, indexPart + 1);

                   if (!Directory.Exists(DestFolder))
                       Directory.CreateDirectory(DestFolder);
               }

               FtpWebRequest FTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(FTPFullFileName);
               FTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.DownloadFile;
               FTP.UseBinary = true;

               FTP.Proxy = null;
                FTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(UserName, Password);

               FtpWebResponse Response = (FtpWebResponse)FTP.GetResponse();
               Stream FtpStream = Response.GetResponseStream();
               int BufferSize =Convert.ToInt32(FileSize(FTPFullFileName, UserName, Password)) ;
                byte[] Buffer = new byte[BufferSize];

               FileStream OutputStream = new FileStream(DestFullFileName, FileMode.Create);
               int ReadCount = FtpStream.Read(Buffer, 0, BufferSize);
               while (ReadCount > 0)
               {
                   OutputStream.Write(Buffer, 0, ReadCount);
                   ReadCount = FtpStream.Read(Buffer, 0, BufferSize);
               }

               FtpStream.Close();
               OutputStream.Close();
               Response.Close();
           }
           catch (Exception ex)
           {
               throw new Exception(ex.Message);
           }

       }

good luck ;-)
