Failure to download files by using Lycos FAST FTP webpage form

Hello!  For 5 days I have been trying in vain to download 2 files:
fp-306a.zip (antivirus F-PROT new version) and ie3lpktw.exe (conversion
of Chinese characters used in HongKong to Chinese characters used in
mainland China).  Would you please help me? Please tell me how to fill
in the webpage form Lycos sent me through < www4mail@web.bellanet.org>.
Should I use Normal Form or Advanced Form? How many filenames can I type
in the SEARCH FOR BOX and how to type them (fp-306a.zip already contains
a hyphen)?  At the bottom of the webpage form, "click here to  Get
Selected Documents  for links only", but I want to get these documents
themselves,Should I "click. here"?

Here's what I did:    I sent an email to  <www4mail@web.bellanet.org>
following the advice given by Gerald Boyd in his file wsftp.faq .  Lycos
sent me some webpages(search parameters, filetype etc), I filled in the
webpage forms and e-mailed them (I did not specify email addresses,
possibly back to Lycos).  Then I got more such webpage forms but no
information whatsoever about the 2 files I want so urgently, although  I
have read all the HELP webpages Lycos sent me several times.
(The webpage forms I emailed obviously reached Lycos because after that
I got more webpages and webforms).
Thank you ever so much!
