Hi All,
Well it may be way past its sell by date, but I can confirm my WS-FTP 95, I
assume it's 1995, is working in Windows 7.
It is the Light version, and was free to download originally. It does not
need to be 'installed', but runs from the exe. I can let anyone have a copy
if you need it. It has WAV sounds to let you know a connection has been
made, or there is a failure. You tab to the local and remote file lists,
and you select the files with up and down arrow keys and route the Mouse to
the focused file, and then right click to get the options.
Best wishes, Kelvin M0AID

I'm about to try filezilla from here in the office it wil be interesting to
see if it gets through our firewall and security system.
Hope so cause I like the fact thats its free and could do without having to
purchase something for my win7 machine.

Interesting! I have found FileZilla less reliable. In fact, I couldn't
connect with it from my work environment. However, I didn't hit any issues
with FTP Explorer. it'S worth trying both to see which one you prefer.
Both products are good imho.
Cheers

Hi
Personally I prefer FileZilla to FTP Explorer. It's more responsive than
FTP Explorer. It is the client that many of us use for Mushroom FM. It's
very straightforward to use and I have trained a few people how to use this
one. It's also free, which is always good.
FTP Explorer is OK, but it can take time to connect to particular sites
whereas Filezilla does not do that.
Just google it.
Just my experiences.

NO FTP explorer is dead simple to use mate, believe me if it was command
line driven I'd be crashing all the time lol!
Just do a google for ftp explorer and the site will be the first or second
link. Personally I have no issue paying the $30 at al!

Hi Terry,
I've used WSFTP Light 95 for years, but now I've moved to Windows 7, I
thought I had better get an updated FTP. Oh, and I can't find the
installation of WSFTP 95, else I'd give it a go!
I've got FTP Explorer from whitestick.co.uk, but in my ignorance I think it
must be command line driven, and I don't have a clue how to drive it
<smile>.

Hi All,
I'm looking for a free, easy to use FTP program. I think Brian mentioned
something in a recent Infotech, but I didn't make a note of it. I just
upload the occasional file, so I don't need anything fancy. What are your
recommendations?
Best wishes, Kelvin M0AID
