FTP Programs by Eddie on 02-20-2007 at 01:07 PM

Hello All, im getting ready to do a fair bit of site updating, and i need a decent FTP Program that works well and pretty easy to use, can anybody advise some good free FTP Programs? :)

Try SmartFTP. Thats what i use :).

More than 20 free FTP programs :).

I personally always use FlashFXP, but that isn't free.

While you are away from your computer you can use Net2FTP.  It is quite easy to use (and you can always upload a copy of it onto your host as well).

EDIT: sorry shadow, I forgot the "www." which it needed :$

If you use Firefox then get FireFTP:

Earlier today it let me down big time: it doesn't show .htaccess files. I had to go back to SmartFTP, which I like a lot.

Yes it does.
Click on Preferences
In the General tab under File View
Check the box which says "Show Hidden Files".

-dt- beat me to it :P

It was faster to download SmartFTP than to figure out what was wrong :P Thanks.

Stop the useless quoting... this isn't a "favorite FTP program" poll... ^o)

Besides, Shadow already got plenty of good suggestions. :locknana:
