FileZilla and Windows FTP

Well, in the Windows world, graphical FTP clients were often a sore spot. Good ones cost money (ala WS-FTP etc.) , and free ones that were useful were elusive.

Look no further. FileZilla is here. It's a sourceforge project, and I have been using it for about the last month. It is awesome. It's easy to setup, and use, and has all the features you need in a ftp client.

If you are looking for ftp on windows, check it out.

Now Microsoft Windows has 'Network Places' that can be used for some ftp duties, but I have found this to be problematic especially with large transfers, and it's lack of resuming transfers. To be fair to Windows, the Mac still lacks solid ftp support. For our Mac friends tho CyberDuck has proved to be a solid client and they may want to check it out.
