Can somebody please give me a link to some free FTP software that's VERY easy to use?
All I want to do is FTP a webpage to my host and I lost my MS Frontpage.
Thanks, brad

I have been using Core FTP for the last 3 weeks which is complelty free and I like it.
I don't know how much easier WSFTP LE could be.
That is what I have used for years.
I have a couple diferent ftp programs on my pc. but if you want a quick and easy way to upload a few files you can ftp directly from internet explorer.
see here> http://www.lagcc.cuny.edu/webmanager/ftptutorial.htm
example: instead of the website address, type in the ftp address in this format: ftp://username@example.com
not HTTP. it is FTP.
login, then navigate to the desired directory on the server. then, just drag-and-drop a file or folder from your hard drive directory into the ftp-IE window.
I open an instance of regular explorer to view the files on my harddrive, then drag the file over to the ftp-IE window.
HTH!

you get a licence reminder once in a blue moon but as a Personal, Educational or Non-Profit Organization... its FREE to use.

click on the start button and go to "run." Type in cmd.
When the command prompt opens type in ftp "my site.com"
authenticate and put your files...
