FTP?
I was just wondering what ftp programs you guys use? I got Cute FTP 6.0 home that I like but the trial is about running out and I dont want to spend 49 bucks to buy it.
Any free clients that has a CuteFtp interface, or any clients you would recommend?
cheers

This isn't the answer you're looking for, but you did ask 
I just type in 'ftp thehost.com' and use put/mput .. i don't have a need for a gui interface to ftp, can't see the need for it personally
Alternatively rsync does an excellent job of synchronising a local and remote site with just one command.
Though i hear smartFTP is 'ok' if you're lloking for a gui option.

Leech FTP it is now unsupported but I still think it's quite good and relatively stable.
Filezilla seems to get better with each release.
I'm currently using both of these, I'm slowly leaning more towards Filezilla but as I've used Leech FTP for so many years there is a certainly familiarity that keeps me using it.
Although, in many cases I just use the command line.

Hmm.didn't mean it to sound all 'cool'. I'm all for gui apps such as text editors/ide's etc i just meant i can't use gui ftp programs as they always seem to do too much, i just want to get a file from A to B and the command line does that quickest for me. Mind you i only use ftp about once a year anyway as i tend to put everything in cvs/svn so if i had to use ftp everyday then i would definetley use a guiMark, although you might want to be all cool with your command line ftp, it's still a lot easier to upload and move between directories with GUI.

He made an anonymous account (like most FTP do), but never put restrictions on it, so I had full access to all folders.
He has 8 gigs of music, I typed rm *.mp3 in the folder, then showed him the yes/no confirmation text.. he almost died.
my luck i would accidently hit the enter key
or even a pen would fall off from somewhere and hit it
my luck is, uhh, no good? lol
