    Hey labyrinth,

    That really bites !!

    here:
    http://www.smartftp.com/
    http://www.coreftp.com/
    http://www.bpftp.com/
    ws ftp

    I haven't tried any of these, so I cannot endorse them. WS ftp may be the best of the lot. Also some of them may be trial versions, but atleast it'll help you out now.

    I can vouch for WS_FTP

    WS_FTP is an excellent program; I've used it for as long as I can remember! You can download WS_FTP Pro from FTPplanet.com, it's available as a 30 day free trial. There's also WS_FTP LE which is free for non-business use.

    http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/documentation/
    SSH support, Drag'n'drop explorer interface yada yada. Just found it, thought it might be worth a look, free of course...

    FileZilla
    FileZilla is a fast FTP client for Windows written by the Open Source community. It features everything that you'd expect from commercial products retailing for $50 or more, including:

    Ability to login into SFTP and SSH servers
    Drag and Drop support
    PASV mode
    ASCII and Binary modes
    Session Keep-Alive functionality and timeout detection
    Full CHMOD support

    Nice find Mik!
    You'd expect to pay $$ for a fully featured program like that - nice one!! :o)

    Came across a whole selection of freeware FTP programs on WebAttack.com - take a look!
    http://www.webattack.com/Freeware/network/fwftp.shtml
    The top 4 rated programs were: ACE 3 Free, Morgul, SmartFTP, and Whisper FTP Surfer.
    (Filezilla and WS_FTP LE were just pipped to the post!)

    FTP programs

    The program FTP Commander is free and does a fairly good job of handling almost all needs. Ws FTPpro is excellent but not free. Persons with nameservers using one common IP usually cant use the IE for FTP access. Only sites with their own IP are usually capable of using FTP access via IE.
    As a professor I have taught hundreds how to use the FTP commander and it usually takes a few minutes.
