380592 2005-08-12 10:50:00 Did a search here and found some old opinions about FTP ... but nowadays what is the best freeware FTP around. SmartFTP? (I used to use Cute FTP but I don't think it's freeware anymore). I run Windows XP but don't use Internet Explorer if it makes a difference. Oggy (5399)
380593 2005-08-12 10:54:00 Just use a browser to log into it. Save you downloading a FTP program at all.

You can use Opera to log into an FTP site. So any browser should.

Depends what u want to use it for. If its just for getting files, a browser will do.

380597 2005-08-12 12:08:00 I played with a few, and settled on FTP commander, finding it easy to get around.

It is the free version ,available here (www.internet-soft.com)
