FileZilla is the only FTP client I bother using if I'm on a Windows machine. Easy to use, light weight, and free. A perfect combination. It also can use XML for connection information so it makes exportation/importation of your ftp site info as easy as copying files between folders if you need to reinstall FileZilla or install it on multiple machines. When you go to download it, be careful because there's a FileZilla ftp server and a FileZilla ftp client, I've accidently downloaded the wrong one more than once. _____ From: MSU Network Administrators Group [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Harper, Chris Sent: Monday, August 14, 2006 12:29 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [MSUNAG] Graphical Windows FTP client? Found out about Filezilla (http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/) when AIS changed AISFTP access and got rid of the secure id's and went to SFTP. When they did this they promoted Filezilla as a free SFTP connectivity tool, can't say that I have any complaints at this point. my primary FTP app for years has always been FTP Voyager though. Not free however. Chris Harper INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SPECIALIST University Relations / Michigan State University 1330 S.

Yes, I know, an odd question for 2006.... Internet Explorer had a nice FTP client that provided moves to/from local disk to remote FTP site using icons as if local. It appears that Microsoft has broken this in IE 7. I've been unable to get it to log into servers, and there's talk on the Net that the function is broken. So I'm looking for an alternative. WS-FTP LE is no longer available. Firefox has an add-in called FireFTP that's pretty good but has shortcomings. Is there a free graphical Windows FTP client you suggest? /rich
