Anyone know what I should be getting my hands on? Fed up using a variety of crapware.......
Any pointers greatly appreciated. :)

I'd go with coreFTP, it works just fine here and it's free :)

I’ve been using WS_FTP95 LE for 7 years now, tried others but like that one the best.

Haven't used FTW for a while now, but I used to use CuteFTP and it worked fine. whenever I'm looking for cheap or freeware, I usually got to download.com first and check out what's there.

Filezilla is one of the best.. It is better than Cuteftp Pro and it is totally free..

This software won the community choice award at sourceforge this year.

Filezilla is the best of the free ftp applications in my opinion.
