If you mean FTP client, try Filezilla or SmartFTP

Re: ftp's
WS_FTP_LE and LeechFTP are two other good free ones.

Re: ftp's
For the Firefox users, there is a very good extension that enables you to use FTP in a tab. :link: I'm testing it as we speak.
Otherwise it's Filezilla all the way.

WSFTP LE is far and away the worst FTP client I've ever had the misfortune of using.

Re: ftp's
I personally use the Lite (free) version of Core FTP
http://www.coreftp.com/
As for what people see in WSFTP LE I just don't know, as bifta says, it's bad!
I would rather use the dos FTP command line program than WSFTP.

Re: ftp's
What exactly are people's problems with WS_FTP_LE? I've been using it for ages and it does the job I need!
The only nuisance is that it tends to time out and means you have to reconnect, but that's hardly a major drawback.

Re: ftp's
I've never had any problems with it, (WS_FTP) and still occaisionaly use it to create text files listing the ftp dir contents.
LeechFTP is the forerunner of bitbeamer, and supports multithreading and other nice goodies.

I have been using ws-ftp95-le for years without any problems. For editing files I use .edit because I can load files from an ftp server as though they were local and just click on save when I have done.

Re: ftp's
Filezilla is the best FTP client out there, open source too.
http://filezilla.sourceforge.net
WS_FTP is crap, end of story.

Now how about some *sensible* comments to back your viewpoint up?
