Is KGet capable of reconnecting to the password protected FTP sites
hosted by FTP servers which regularly disconnect client connections ?
    

All ftp sites disconnect client connections if they are inactive for a period 
of time. Kget will reconnect upto X times (set in preferences) on a login or 
broken connection error.
I haven't tried it but I would imagine that kget allows the normal net 
procedure of putting the username and password as part of the Url.
For me it seems it does not even try. I've got Reconnect Options set as follows:

No. of Retries = 20
On login or Timeout Eror = checked
Reconnect after = 1 minute
On broken connection = checked

But I relly suspect that this part of the KGet configuration deals with the computer-to-internet connection rather than with the FTP client-server connection since on the same dialog one can find the Connection Type (which I have set up as Permanent since I am behind the firewall) and Offline Mode (unchecked for me)
