1. Maybe something like this:

URLDownloadToFile ( "http://something", "filename" ) 
; Check every 2 seconds to see if file is finished downloading
$size = FileGetSize("filename") 
Sleep(2000)
While FileGetSize("filename") > $size
  Sleep(2000)
WEnd

2. Try third-party software (search for command-line email programs)

I think CyberSlug's example will enter an infinite loop, try...

URLDownloadToFile ( "http://something", "filename" ) 
; Check every 2 seconds to see if file is finished downloading
$size = FileGetSize("filename") 
Sleep(2000)
While FileGetSize("filename") > $size
 $size = FileGetSize("filename") 
 Sleep(2000)
WEnd

(added the line to set $size within the while loop)

But ummm .. doesn't control pass on from URLDownloadToFile() only when it has finished?

I get $nLoops = 0 from the following modified scriptlet:

; Monitor download, to determine when it has finished
;-------------------------------------------------------

ProgressOn("Downloading", "Step1/3", "URLDownloadToFile() starting")

    URLDownloadToFile ( "http://www.snopes.com", "filename" ) 
    
ProgressSet(50, "Monitor loop starting", "Step2/3")

   ; Check every 2 seconds to see if file is finished downloading
    $nSize = FileGetSize("filename") 
    Sleep(2000)
    $nLoops = 0
    While FileGetSize("filename") > $nSize
        $nLoops = $nLoops + 1
        $nSize = FileGetSize("filename") 
       ;Sleep(2000)
    WEnd

ProgressSet(100, "$nLoops=" & $nLoops, "Step3/3")
    Sleep(5000)

Exit

.. Which means you just need:

;Download to file
    URLDownloadToFile ( "http://www.snopes.com", "filename" ) 

;Send email (cos by this point the download has completed)
   ;???? commandline utility
   ;???? commandline utility
   ;???? commandline utility

I thought the script will not continue until the URL is completely downloaded.

as far as I have done:

URLDownloadToFile ( "http://something", "filename" )
run("myemailprog.exe me@me.com done")

there are a lot of nice command line email senders.

If all you need is notification use a message box. The script will not continue untill the download completes anyway.

URLDownloadToFile("http://www.hiddensoft.com", "C:\mydownload.htm")
MsgBox (4096,'', 'DONE!!',1)

i think i got wat you need...

well i have a autoit web browser i made ... and what i sue to see if a page is loaded is this

$Obj1 = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2");;; creast a shell object

$Obj1_ctrl = GUICtrlCreateObj($Obj1, 8, 8, 1226, 604) ;;; create the window on the gui so you can see it

$Obj1.navigate ("http://www.dreamlords.com") ;;;;;Go to whatever site you want

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

While $Obj1.busy

Sleep (30) ; Idle around while site is loading

WEnd
