Certainly Firefox will prompt when you shut firefox down that there are
outstanding downloads, cancelling them there cleans-up partial files I
believe. Although it does seem to have some issues with things like
"Pause" for FTP downloads :(

If it matters try a command line client, "ftp" or "curl" should do
resumes where possible.

Not all FTP server support resume. HTTP is a safer bet in this regard.
