JN - Care to qualify your opinion? e.g why is it better than WS FTP Pro, par exemple?

- Jon

yeah ;) id totally forgotten about that little program!

Cheers

i use either cute ftp (very good tho a little ott) or for a real basic, dead simple, non resource gobbling monster try windows commander.

Very nice and easy to use and doesnt require 128 meg to run it :)

Like a dream ;) didnt like my firewall, i remember how annoying deleting folders is with this!!

have to delete files within then the folder :(

terrapin ftp anyone, must be easy to use, because I can :D

www.tpin.com downloadable.


And

heheh cheers, im using ipswitch now.

Seems ok at the moment, but the train horn noise is er........ well :D

CuteFTP Pro - it's the daddy :D

Chris - I've got that! Can you temporaily change the password on your site so I can d/load that 165mb file without http time outs please! ;)

gimme a url ill try it :D

Terrapin Ftp lol.

The crowd goes wild ;) you'll see..

But mostly use WS FTP Pro :)

Another vote for CuteFTP - I found it to be much faster than WS-FTP Pro...and things are just SO much easier.

Be alert about the programs you are downloading as some of the lesser-known ones may contain Spyware. Early versions of Cute contained dodgy add-ons.

I always check here if there's any doubt.

Not with you Puff. Presume you mean SP3 on our download page? Password?

ok so what's the joke regarding terrapin then ? :confused:

Andy, I downloaded this the other day as I needed a ftp client pronto so thought I try this one out. When the ftp tranfer completed the computer played a sound file of crowd cheering.

Well it amused me :rolleyes:

H

WS plays some horn or something

Ahh I get it now :rolleyes:

I set mine to beep instead :D

Excuse me - but you're all wrong :) The best is SmartFTP - http://www.smartftp.com/

I dont like that fact you cant delete folders from the top level

I assume you mean that SmartFTP can't do this (I can't try it as I don't have it), because you can do it in WS FTP Pro.

You mean you're not gonna just take my word :)

Because of the bandwidth selector - it was a life saver when we had to transfer 400 MB files to a server (from the US to Germany) over the company WAN without it saturating the network.

Also - is the only one I could get working reliably through the company proxy

It also looks pretty!

nar its ws. it tells me..

125 Using existing ASCII mode data connection for /bin/ls (330 bytes).
transferred 330 bytes in < 0.001 seconds, 2578.125 Kbps ( 322.266 KBps), transfer succeeded.
Allow deletion of non-empty folders is disabled

answerd my own question i think ;)

SmartFTP can delete folders from the top level - I just checked

Oh dear, I was almost beginning to believe you until you said that!

Lets settle it :)

super_si - take a look at SmartFTP and tell us which you prefer?

gimme a url im lazy ;)

ahem - http://www.smartftp.com

Make it clicky then ;)

http://www.smartftp.com
