My current trial of the excellent cute ftp has expired and need to get another program to upload to my website, can someone please recommend a free ftp program i can download, i dont really need many features just the basics would be OK. Thanks.

WS FTP, if it's still free, is a great app.

I use WS_FTP LE, too, and have been for years. Never given me much trouble. LE is for light edition I think.

I like the free FileZilla from sourceforge.

Also have learned to use ms-dos prompt,
instead - not too bad, actually!

yep, go with WS_FTP

CuteFTP worked for me ok too.

If CuteFTP was free I would recommend it, but since it is not I would say WS_FTP LE.

I second the vote on FileZilla - I actually liked it better than WS_FTP LE.

SmartFTP has worked well for me...

you're gonna hear WS_FTP and WS_FTP_LE a thousand times.
I even prefer it over its predecessor the "pro" version. All those little image icons etc just slow down the app.
One thing to keep in mind though, for every fresh installation, be sure to change the sounds in your options , Although I still like the "uh-oh" for any instance of a connection failure.

I personally use LeapFTP. It's got a very basic layout. The site manager makes it easy to connect, but it does have a 30 day trial period.

I use ACEFtp and I will recommend it fully. Its totally free.

WS FTP is great.

Hello

We all agree, WS FTP is great.

Hi.

I was just about to post the same thread. I also use WS_FTP Pro, but it expired.

WS_FTP Pro I can't find a free download, they are all around $70.00. I downloaded the LE edition and it stated that I couldn't use it unless I was a school or training facility. It was not designed for professional use.

What should I do about getting a copy of WS_FTP free? Does anyone have a download link?

Thanks!

I was trying to look up the LE edition of WS_FTP last night and found only a note that it was discontinued. Everybody better hang on to the copies they have :Z

Somebody should put it up at the OldVersions.com site if it's not already there.

They must have just done that. I looked it up last night on Download.com and it was still available. I just check again now, and it dosen't show up on the download list. Only the Pro and Home editions show up. I've never seen the Home edition before, I'm wondering if that's the new LE edition...

How hard do you think it would be to make your own FTP program with the functions of WS_FTP Pro?

If I can locate a download for the LE edition I'll post the link in this thread.

FileZilla is wonderful...I've been using it since I lost everything (including my copy of WS_FTP LE) in a major computer crash.

FileZilla

If you can't find another link, I've uploaded it.

You'll have to register and confirm your e-mail address (sorry for the hoops -- bandwidth can get expensive).

WS_FTP is the best so far and I've tried a number of them.

Core FTP...just as fast and looks nearly same (IMO)
as WS FTP LE...o yea and limitied free use for commerical

leechftp

WS_FTP... only after about 6 reinstalls of the free 30-day trial of CuteFTP.

I used to like WS_FTP...but the LE version has some annoyances, like not letting you delete directories until you delete all the files out of them first.

I switched to FileZilla a few months ago....and I think it is great. It's full featured, does allow you to delete non-empty directories, and has a handy feature that keeps you signed in to FTP even if your host has a quick time-out rate.

I've been using SmartFTP for awhile now. It works great. Download it for free at www.smartftp.com

Have been trying a few of your recommendations, like coreftp and ws_ftp, both are great. Probably even WS_FTP is better to use than cute ftp, time will tell. Thanks for the recommendations.

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a flash-based ftp program that physically runs on a website...not on a computer. This way anyone without software can upload/download/play audio files..etc..etc.

Anyone know of such a program? Also, if this isn't possible then I'm looking for something similar to UnlimitedFTP which is a java-based FTP client that runs on websites...but is way too expensive. Trying to go the freeware route.

Thanks!

I like Filezilla and CoffeeCup

Funny how the guy (who ive forgotten his name now), only wanted a couple of recommendations, and now has nearly 40!
Heh, yeah i use it regularly. Tis a great App.

FileZilla works pretty well.

FlashFXP.

you only have to wait 20 seconds or so to use it freely after trial period expires.

Great app IMO.

I'll offer a 5th on the Filezilla recoomendation.

SmartFTP for me as well.

Deffinalty SmartFTP

If it hasnt been mentioned..
FlashFXP
works a treat! Its really simple to use .

Smartftp at http://smartftp.com

I'll have to throw in my recommendation for [url=http://www.coreftp.com]core ftp/[url]

I so far like Gftp the best, but it's *nix only gftp.seul.org

My vote goes to CuteFTP. Does cost $30 after 30 days, but I really like it. So you could use it for 30 days for free, then move on

I have used WSFTP, and it was ok, not my favorite though.

I own WSFTP Pro and Ace FTP. WSFTP is good but there's something I like about Ace FTP more. My uploads even go a tad faster in Ace.
