Default What FTP client do you use?

I'm looking for some recommendations for a good stable FTP program that can handle large numbers of file uploads and downloads.

The FTP program I’m looking for will recognize when it hits a problem and put the current file back to the end of the queue, therefore recovering itself.

I've used WS_FTP and more recently Core FTP and FileZilla client, but none were too impressive.

Any recommendations?

I use two of them but only one is now available for free. The free one is LeechFTP. It is a 620 KB download and can be downloaded from:

This program's development has been discontinued but that should not bother you as it is good and can be installed on Win98 or WinXP. Try it out and decide.

I use CuteFTP as my main FTP client but take a look at smartFTP too as a FREE one it is pretty good.

Filezilla works fine and I have tried using it uploading or downloading
several gigs of data.

what's problem did you have?

if you experienced file corruption it's probably the server side
rather than the client program or you've forgot to download
the file you want in BINARY mode rather the standard ASCII mode
