    can anybody recommend any decent decent Free FTP application ? where you dont have to purchase a licence to use it ever?

    (i know SmartFTP and CuteFTP but need a free one).

    You know any? (which you have used)

    That is because you're installing the server version.

    Download the client version here: http://filezilla-project.org/download.php?type=client

    FileZilla by far is the best program to use - for free that is. I have tried quite a few other ones and they don't completely stack up.

    Plus interesting fact one of the top 5 US banks uses filezilla for connecting its vendors to transfer files so it has to be pretty good.

    Filezilla is hands-down the best WINDOWS ftp GUI for any price - but windows can do FTP transfers on the command-line without installing anything.

    For mac, the best FTP software I've found is actually Cyberduck. And I'm pretty picky with my FTP software.

    For linux, I stand by gFTP, and it's layout is my favorite - two lists side-by-side. one of your local drive and the other is the remote drive. I wish all FTP programs were like that.

    If you are familiar with Dreamweaver, there is a inbuilt FTP program which you can use at design time.

    I used filezilla and got a shed load of nasty implants on my website. Avoid Avoid Avoid! Smart FTP is deninately worth the $40 charge any day of the week. Available at http://www.smartftp.com

    I have used SmartFTP, CutieFTP, and Filezilla. Filezilla is the best one that I have used so use it!

    i simply refuse to believe that anyone who has used both smartftp and filezilla prefers filezilla.

    I am forced to ask sir, have you been drinking? :D
