    Default FTP Program?

    Hi guys!!!

    I just got a website here, and the thing said I should use some FTP to move files from my computer to your computer!

    What kind of program should I get? I just want it to be easy to use, I am just an amateur at this LOL.

    THANKS!

    I use Ipswitch WS_FTP Home 12. It costs $35, and only works on Windows.

    Hey Monica. I recommend FileZilla. It's free, open-source, widely-used, has all of the features you'll need, and is available for Windows, Mac OS, and GNU/Linux.

    WinSCP is another good alternative, though it's only available for Windows.

    Good luck!

    I'll have to check out FileZilla if you guys recommend it to work in conjunction with your services.Is it simple to operate?

    I hate things that are over complicated or confusing because I feel like they can become a time suck instead of a time saver.
