Hi Steve,

Web Drive is not a proper FTP client. It does not follow standard practices, 
and does not allow you to use advanced FTP functions such as custom commands, 
SFTP, etc. I admit that Web Drive is very useful for mounting FTP sites as 
drives in Explorer, but for me it is just not convenient. File Zilla has a very 
good site manager, and for me, and plus I have the advantage of knowing the 
pseeds of my transfers, how much time has elapsed, and how much is remaining. I 
also have the advantage of being able to resume downloads and uploads, which I 
can't do in explorer after a site has been mapped with Web Drive. Just my 
thoughts though, if it works for you, that's great.
