    Hi guys,

    I am looking for a reliable ftp client for backing up my files. I tried cuteftp but for some reason the scheduled tasks would disappear.

    I also tried ftpvoyager which works great but the scheduler will not download .htaccess files and it just stops downloading. I emailed them several times and they haven't responded at all.

    I'm looking for any suggestions. Preferably free but I don't mind paying as along as it works.

    Thanks.

    Filezilla is the best of them all.

    If you have shell access, you could just get in there and zip all your files and download it as it would be faster than downloading one by one thru ftp
