A number of members have got their own sites up and running, what FTP programme have you used?

I use WS_FTP at the moment, it a demo version which I have managed to use twice so far after the trail period has ended.(my luck might run out soon)

I tried others but found them difficult to use (or maybe it was me) the good thing with WS_FTP is that it has a wizard which is reasy to use, suggestions/comments please.

Is there a way of getting WS_FTP as a download but not demo?

John, I've been using Dreamweaver for a few years now. I've only ever used that so I can not compare it to anything else. I find it great to use.

Thanks for that Kev, with all the information on your site DW sounds right from what I know, for my little website it could be OTT.

Unsure very early days, seem to doing alright, 720+ hits UK, OZ, NZ, USA, Can, Malaysia, Finland.
Good ranking on Google
Get really nice comments back, but it suits at the moment, it is really basic.

Hi Howie, I saw that you were watching on the sidelines, glad you came into the discussion. I have had ago at Smart and I could n't get the hang of it, I must have been doing something wrong, might have another play with it, thanks for the download.
Enjoy some of your threads, had a look at your site, lots of great info.
Going to the new picket on Sat.
