FileZilla - Fast FTP Client

FileZilla is a fast FTP client written by Tim Kosse. It is available free (donations accepted) from sourceforge.net. I use Filezilla and have found it intuitive and completely functional for uploading and downloading data to and from, various websites.

Here's a description of Filezilla from SnapFiles.com -

"FileZilla is powerful Open Source FTP/SFTP client with many features. It includes a site manager to store all your connection details and logins as well as an Explorer style interface that shows the local and remote folders and can be customized independently. The program offers support for firewalls and proxy connections as well as SSL and Kerberos GSS security. Additional features include keep alive, auto ascii/binary transfer, download queue, manual transfers, raw FTP commands and more. A nice program for beginners and advanced user alike."
