Post subject:  Downloading file with long name causes IO Exception

I got following error message in the log file when I tried to download a file with a long name. Perhaps I can shorten the directory name, but why do we have a limitation as such. Is this .Net4 related?

It's .net related, I will try to fix that!

Edit: will be fixed in the next version!
