ftp program

Hi,

Can anyone suggest a good ftp program? Are there any good freebies or is that a false economy? It needs to work with vista (the operating system from hell).

Thanks a lot

Paul

Re: ftp program

CuteFTP and SmartFTP are the only ones I know of. Dreamweaver has a built in FTP.

I hope this helps,
Pádraig.

Re: ftp program

I thought you might have. If you did, it would save you some space on your computer.

Re: ftp program

Just been looking, think cuteftp looks good, $39.99 after trial doesn't seem bad and not too many issues with vista....hooray!

Dreamweaver will be my first purchase after I've re-mortgaged for photoshop. You would never guess I was a novice!!

Re: ftp program

Yeah if it's free you're after then SmartFTP is a good one.

The best ever FTP program is Transmit for mac though.

Re: ftp program

For Windows: FileZilla is free, open source, easy to use, and robust. (I love the new beta cuz its twice as fast as the current release, it just has the annoying habit of always disconnecting from my server.)

Re: ftp program

You get what you pay for! Macs are cheap if you compare them to a similarly equipped PC
