FTP which program do you use?

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

FileZilla is one of the best ftp programs i've ever used... The only gripe i have about it is not being able to connect to multiple servers at a time, and a small but critical bug that surfaces from time to time (not using latest version though)... Sometimes, when downloading or uploading a file, the transfer will not stop at the EOF, it will continue until i close the program... I started downloading some logs from my gameserver (ut2004) and went out for a smoke, when I came back, the download was still going on the last file, which had reached about 5gb of data. I obviously couldn't open the file to see what was in it, but i'd assume it would just be garbage...

never experienced that bug, does sound serious, though. Why don't you just upgrade and see if they fixed it.
