Abstract: A method of obtaining a file from a remote processing system via a browser application implemented using a processing system. The method includes causing the browser application to display an indication of available files, generate a download instruction in response to the selection of an available file and supply the download instruction to a file manager application. The file manager application is then used to generate a second download instruction using the download instruction and transfer the second download instruction to the remote processing system, the remote processing system being responsive to the second download instruction to transfer the selected file to the processing system.
